Gwandanaland Comics #2355

This 2019 Gwandanaland Comics treasury reprints the very first issue of Bang-Up Comics (December, No. 1), a golden-age gem billed right on the cover as "All New and Different." The cover art puts Cosmo Mann front and center, wielding his futuristic Sun-Ray Gun against a chaotic battlefield scene featuring tanks, parachuting soldiers, and explosions — with the bold tagline "Cosmo Mann's Sun-Ray Gun Defends America" leaving no doubt about the patriotic stakes. A wonderful way to experience a piece of early comics history in a convenient collected format.
