Gwandanaland Comics #899

Gwandanaland Comics #899 reprints the Fawcett golden-age publication Anarcho: Dictator of Death, and the cover immediately signals what kind of villain you're dealing with — a ghoulish, green-skinned figure with clawed hands and a wide-brimmed hat leers menacingly from the original orange cover, every sharp feature radiating sinister intent. Presented in the tradition of Fawcett's "Comics Novel" format, this was billed as a big, complete adventure story in comic strip form, and this 2019 Gwandanaland reprint makes that self-contained pulp-era tale accessible again. If you have a taste for golden-age villainy rendered in bold, lurid color, this one delivers the atmosphere in full.
