In "Campus Courtship Part 2," Steve Canyon finds himself in the small country of Mahnay, escorting a civil engineer on a U.S. urban renewal mission. There, he navigates a delicate political rift between the King’s wife, pushing for an alliance with Communist China, and his daughter, who demands the Queen’s removal. This classic installment, written and illustrated by Milton Caniff with inks by Dick Rockwell and colors by Frank Engli, captures the era’s geopolitical tensions with sharp storytelling and timeless art. The cover, also by Caniff and Rockwell, perfectly frames the issue’s intrigue.
