New Funnies Special #Spring [1941]

In this 1941 wartime special, young Frank makes a desperate dash from a besieged farm, the sky above torn by paratroopers, and races to the church to ring the bells for help—only to find the phone line severed, leaving him unable to guide the Home Guard to his location. Written and drawn by William McCail, this tense, grounded moment captures the quiet courage of ordinary people in extraordinary times, all rendered in the distinctive style of the era. The cover by William McCail completes the atmospheric package of a 6d comic from a pivotal year in history.
