Gwandanaland Comics #750

Gwandanaland Comics #750 collects the complete Jumbo Comics adventures of Tom Sherrill in one handy volume, preserving these vintage strip-style stories for a new generation of readers. The cover showcases an actual comic strip page — Chapter Twelve, "A Way Out" — depicting a dramatic frontier siege: a stockade set ablaze by the villain Sneerface, settlers scrambling to escape, Jim Murray riding hard to the river, and the survivors fleeing through a secret cave tunnel. It's a wonderful snapshot of classic adventure serial storytelling, rendered in that warm, aged newsprint aesthetic that fans of early American comics will find instantly appealing.
