Golden Lad #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeGolden Lad wades into a smashing new adventure involving a rescue ship and an old man pulling the vessel in, with the hero discovering a whole flock of golden-handed ships on many a hard voyage. The issue also includes stories featuring Sandusky and the Senator, The Kid Wizards, Swiftarrow, and Air Rover, along with a Green Lama Club membership offer for readers.
When a soldier on furlough learns that the rescue ship bringing his young niece home from war-torn Europe has gone missing, his grandfather sets out on a desperate solo mission—but it's Golden Lad who races across the ocean to locate the drifting vessel and discover what stopped it cold. Stranded far off course with wounded soldiers and children aboard, the ship faces a race against time and the elements, with Golden Lad caught between two impossible choices.
Sandusky and the Senator are always on the lookout for an angle, and in "Clean Deal!" they're ready to turn a simple rent dispute into an elaborate con—complete with Oriental mystique and promises that might be too good to be true. This 1945 humor tale catches the pair red-handed as their schemes collide with unexpected complications. Perfect for fans of Golden Age comedy and con-artist capers.
Air Rover and his aide Johnny Hopper venture into the frozen Himalayas on a dangerous hunt for the legendary Valley of Ten Thousand Devils, only to discover a hidden city ruled by an ancient, mysterious master who has dwelt in darkness for centuries. When this enigmatic king recognizes Air Rover's arrival as the moment he's been waiting for, the adventurers find themselves caught between competing forces in a struggle that promises to test Air Rover like never before. With treasure, treachery, and a powerful adversary at stake, escape from this ice-bound realm may prove far harder than reaching it.
