Tygra

Bursting onto the scene in AC Comics' Fun Comics #1 in 1980, Tygra is a Bronze Age original from the pen of Bill Black, one of the independent comics world's most dedicated champions of classic adventure storytelling. Over a publishing life stretching into the early '90s, this AC character shares pages with a colorful cast including Page Connors, Commando D, and the wonderfully named Wee Willie Weehawken — the kind of eclectic, anything-goes company that makes AC's universe such a rewarding corner of comics history to explore. With appearances in both Fun Comics and the beloved FemForce, Tygra is a small but genuine piece of the indie Bronze Age tapestry that collectors of off-the-beaten-path comics will be glad they discovered.
