Gwandanaland Comics #1625

This 2018 Gwandanaland Comics treasury collects Reed Crandall's work from Treasure Chest of Fun & Fact Vol. 16, No. 7 (December 1960), and the reproduced cover alone sets the tone beautifully — a chaotic 19th-century battlefield scene with soldiers on horseback, cannon, and clashing troops rendered in vivid period detail, anchored by the promise of a story about Henri Dunant and the International Red Cross. Beyond that historical drama, the volume also includes the complete "This Godless Communism" and "The Mystery of Shady Falls," making this a genuinely rich gathering of Crandall's versatile storytelling across genres. A fine single volume for anyone who appreciates the educational comics tradition at its most ambitious.
