It is part of Canton Street Press's Flashback Replica series, which faithfully reproduces classic Golden Age comics in a facsimile format. This issue features the adventures of the titular heroine, a lesser-known female crimefighter from the era.
"Slaves to the Sun" kicks off with Blackie and his gang holed up on the island of San Carlos, waiting for a diamond shipment. When the cargo arrives, Blackie’s brutal order to have the local natives retrieve it sets off a chain of violence—and a storm, both literal and supernatural, begins to brew. Written by Richard Kraus and illustrated by Johnny Craig, with inks by Craig and lettering by Jim Wroten, this eerie tale unfolds under the watchful eye of a cover by Sheldon Moldoff.
