☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume in the Alex Toth Reader series continues to showcase the master storyteller's legendary work, collecting a range of his comic book stories and illustrations from the 1950s through the 1970s. Featuring a curated selection of Toth's crisp, dynamic artwork across genres like war, western, and adventure, this edition highlights his influential draftsmanship and innovative panel layouts.
"War on the Streets" showcases Alex Toth’s masterful storytelling and sharp, expressive art in a classic military satire, as country bumpkin Will Stockdale’s earnest but bewildering attempts to transfer from the Air Force to the infantry spark chaos and hilarity. With every line drawn and inked by Toth himself, this 2005 issue from Pure Imagination presents a uniquely crisp, timeless comic experience, and the cover by Toth perfectly captures the story’s wry, deadpan tone.
