☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the April 1945 daily and Sunday strips of Milton Caniff's classic adventure serial, following Terry Lee and the Dragon Lady through wartime intrigue in the China-Burma-India theater. Part of NBM's archival series reprinting the complete run of Terry and the Pirates in chronological order, this edition focuses on the perilous events of a single month during the strip's World War II era.
In "The Dragon and the Snake Part Two," Pat and the Dragon Lady face a desperate mission as the Japanese launch a fierce counter-offensive to destroy the critical transmitter, forcing them to make a risky retreat. Left behind with Terry and Hu Shee deep in enemy territory, the stakes rise in this gripping chapter of Milton Caniff’s legendary adventure, rendered in his signature style with full art and inks by Caniff himself. The cover, also by Caniff, captures the tension with a striking, dynamic image.
In the tense aftermath of a failed mission, Lt. Terry Lee and Hu Shee are left behind enemy lines as the Japanese launch a fierce counter-offensive targeting a crucial transmitter. With Commander Pat Ryan and Lai Choi San [The Dragon Lady] forced to retreat, the fate of the two stranded operatives hangs in the balance—while Lt. Charles Charles [Hotshot Charlie] and Sgt. Jane Allen brace for the next move, and Capt. Snake Tumblin watches the skies with wary eyes.
In the tense aftermath of a narrow escape, Lt. Terry Lee, April Kane, and Lt. Charles Charles [Hotshot Charlie] find themselves drawn to a secluded plantation, where suspicion grows as Terry begins to question the loyalty of its owner—especially as Japanese forces close in. With Pappa Pizon and Hutch at their side, the group must navigate hidden dangers and uncertain allies in a race to survive.
