Gwandanaland Comics #2229

This 2019 Gwandanaland Comics collection reprints Young King Cole Detective Tales Vol. 3, No. 1, and the cover alone sets an irresistible tone — a dark-haired woman in a red swimsuit struggles underwater alongside a muscular figure, a metallic diving apparatus tumbling nearby and a curious fish drifting overhead in the churning depths. Featuring the adventures of Toni Gayle, this volume promises pulpy detective thrills with a strong female lead at the center of the action. A great way to revisit a fondly remembered corner of mid-century comics storytelling.
