Smash Comics #49

"Selwyn the Savage" kicks off in 1944 with a gripping tale of espionage and unexpected connections, as The Marksman—already deep in the heart of Mexico aiding Polish refugees from Nazi persecution—finds himself drawn into a new mission across South America. With Fred Guardineer handling art, inks, and lettering, the story unfolds with the quiet intensity of a man caught between duty and something far more personal, especially when an old friend, Anna, reenters his life. The cover by Alex Kotzky captures the era’s bold style, framing a moment of tension and intrigue that perfectly sets the tone for this wartime adventure.
