The Scarlet Pimpernel

A single-issue comic from Pendulum Press, this 1978 adaptation brings Baroness Orczy's classic adventure novel to the sequential art medium. Writer Naunerle Farr and artist Rudy Florese distill the swashbuckling tale of the English fop who secretly rescues aristocrats from the French Revolution's guillotine. While a brief entry, it stands as a notable example of Pendulum's literary comic adaptations, introducing a generation of readers to the masked hero's dual identity and daring exploits.
