☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects a storyline from Milton Caniff's classic newspaper strip, focusing on Steve Canyon's involvement in a tense situation in a town called 'Shanty.' Published by Kitchen Sink Press in 1989 as part of their series reprinting the strip, it showcases Caniff's signature adventure storytelling and detailed artwork from the post-World War II era of the strip.
In "Taps for 'Shanty' Town," Steve Canyon faces a new kind of mission: reopening a shuttered air base amid community resistance—only to find his biggest challenge isn’t the bureaucracy, but his impulsive fourteen-year-old cousin, Jo, who’s suddenly in his care. Written and drawn by the legendary Milton Caniff, with inks by Dick Rockwell and Peter Poplaski, this 1989 issue from Kitchen Sink Press blends Caniff’s signature storytelling with sharp, expressive art, all framed by a cover that captures the tension and humor of the moment.
