Gwandanaland Comics #554

Walt Kelly's charming artwork shines on this Gwandanaland Comics collection, gathering the complete 10-issue run of The Brownies in a single volume. The cover reproduces a delightful vintage scene featuring a cheerful toy-like locomotive carrying whimsical little figures, while a pair of lumbering turtles and a small elf-like character scramble along the foreground tracks. It's a warm, playful snapshot of mid-century all-ages comics at their most imaginative, and an excellent way to experience Kelly's complete work on the series in one place.
