Gwandanaland Comics #286

Gwandanaland Comics #286 collects the complete run of X of the Underground from Military Comics, bringing together the wartime adventures of Sonya, a fierce resistance fighter taking on Nazi occupiers across Yugoslavia. The cover reproduces an interior page that says it all: Sonya stands boldly atop a giant "X," delivering a defiant speech to readers while, below her, Nazi officers attempt to charm two Slavic women at a riverside picnic — blissfully unaware of what's coming for them. It's a compelling snapshot of Golden Age WWII storytelling, now gathered in one handsome 2017 volume for readers eager to rediscover this spirited heroine.
