Gwandanaland Comics #1840

This Gwandanaland Comics collection brings together the complete run of Mystico the Wonder Man from Startling Comics (and Fighting Yank #1), making it a rewarding read for fans of Golden Age adventure. The cover showcases a vivid sampler of interior pages: a towering dinosaur-like creature looming over a coastal scene, Atlantic Fleet battleships steaming past Sandy Hook, Mystico receiving a psychic warning at his desk, and a tense speedboat sequence — all hinting at a magician resurrected from the tombs of Egypt who uses his powers to protect the nation. For anyone curious about the stranger, more mystical corners of early comics, this 2018 reprint volume is a genuine treat.
