Texas #21/1955
"Den sovende byen" delivers a classic 1955 pulp thriller with a twist: when two men arrive in Alkali City handing out tiny Chinese figurines, the entire town slips into a deep, unnatural sleep. Only Eve Morgan remains awake, and she must rouse Buck to track down the bandits who’ve stolen from the bank while the town lies helpless. Art by R. Charles Roylance brings the eerie stillness and urgent chase to life in this atmospheric, mystery-driven tale from a rare Scandinavian comic series.
In the dusty frontier town of Alkali City, a sudden wave of sleep sweeps through the streets after strangers distribute small Chinese figurines—each laced with a potent sedative. With the entire town unconscious, the bandits Chinky and Slim Donovan strike, robbing the bank and vanishing into the desert. Only Eve Morgan remains awake, and she soon rouses Buck Jones to join her in a desperate pursuit. As the two race after the fleeing outlaws, the quiet town becomes a stage for a high-stakes chase where every shadow holds a threat.
