Author Mickey Spillane had developed the character of Mike Hammer based on the life of a former New York police officer and ex-Marine, Jack Stang, and also wanted him to play the lead role in the movie adaptation of one of the novels of the series in 1963.
Spillane’s first Mike Hammer story, I, the Jury , took him just two weeks to write and was published in 1947. Critics were merciless in their reviews of the violence-laden tale of a war veteran who learns that his old combat buddy has been slain and sets out to avenge the death.
