Published by Fantagraphics, it continues the comprehensive reprint series of Crane's influential work from the 1930s and 1940s, showcasing his dynamic storytelling and innovative art style.
"Gold of the Frozen North" finds Captain Easy navigating treacherous waters—both literal and moral—as he aids a young girl in smuggling a cache of diamonds downriver to sell for gold, only to turn around and help her retrieve the fortune upriver to settle her father’s debt. With a vengeful creditor and a dozen hired hands on their trail, Easy must outwit a relentless foe who isn’t after gold at all, but something far more personal. Written and illustrated by the legendary Roy Crane, this Sunday strip collection showcases his masterful storytelling and dynamic artistry in a tale of loyalty, danger, and the high cost of keeping a promise.
In "Gold of the Frozen North," Captain Easy finds himself caught in a high-stakes journey through treacherous terrain, escorting a young girl named Jo down a frozen river with a hidden cache of diamonds meant to settle a debt. As they race against time, a ruthless man with a personal vendetta—and a dozen hired hands—tracks them, determined to seize the diamonds, the gold, or Jo herself before the debt can be repaid.
