About the series
In the aftermath of World War II, Anglo-American Publishing Company Limited launched this short-lived, four-issue series starring a modern-day outlaw who, with his band of followers, righted wrongs outside the law. Written primarily by Ted McCall and illustrated by Ed Furness, Freelance Robin Hood and Company Comics (1945–1946) offered a brisk, action-packed take on the classic folk hero transplanted into a contemporary setting. Though its run was brief, the series stands as a snapshot of Canadian comic book publishing in the mid-1940s, showcasing the era's pulp-influenced storytelling and the talents of McCall and Furness.
