'Things really begin to happen in the early '40s. Terry Lee grows up to be a Flight Officer in the Air Force and, played against the background of a World War, takes on considerable dimension. Now Caniff was in his element. Terry was no longer a mere comic strip. It was a war novel!' - Jim Steranko The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 11, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! It's a new year of reunions, not resolutions-Terry and Pat join forces! They connect with the Dragon Lady-and with Terry's old flame, Hu Shee! Terry, Hotshot Charlie, and Hu Shee cross paths with swashbuckling pirate Johnny Jingo, in turn joining Terry's old friend April Kane before a new encounter with Nazi collaborator Papa Pyzon! Papa is exactly who he seems, yet his henchman, Mr. Hutch, may have a different trick up his sleeve. Meanwhile, the trick up April's sleeve is less successful, positioning Terry to weather a wintry storm with the delightful Fob Cobb and the prune-faced Ilse Grosse-Nach. It's like getting both candy and a lump of coal in one's Christmas stocking! This tabloid-sized Volume 11 containing the 1945 dailies and Sundays is an unparalleled upgrade that no Terry fan can afford to pass up. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

The Library of American Comics and Clover Press are proud to publish Terry and the Pirates: The Master Collection. Reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs that were unavailable for previous books, this series is the ultimate edition of Caniff's masterpiece. We present the Sundays in an unmatched color fidelity and larger than they have ever before been reprinted -- an unparalleled upgrade that no Terry fan can afford to pass up. The complete strip will be collected in twelve deluxe 11' x 14' hardcover volumes, with a complementary thirteenth volume by Dean Mullaney and Bruce Canwell that tells the behind-the-scenes story of the strip. Terry and the Pirates debuted in October 1934. For the next twelve years, Caniff would weave a spell of exotic adventure, sex appeal, and humor. The cartoonist set the strip in exotic China, where historic events occurring in the region during the 1930s provided the raw material from which he blended fantasy and reality to create an extraordinary graphic narrative. The series introduces young Terry Lee, his adult pal Pat Ryan, their sidekick Connie, as well as an array of unforgettable brigands such as Captains Judas and Blaze, and the two toughest women to ever sail on the China Seas: the alluring Burma and the inimitable Dragon Lady. No cartoonist has so heavily influenced his medium as has Milton Caniff, and no comic strip has had more imitators than Terry and the Pirates. Terry and the Pirates was read by 31 million newspaper subscribers between 1934 and 1946. Vol. 1 collects all dailies and Sundays from the strip's beginning on October 22, 1934 through the end of 1935 in a deluxe 192 pp, 11' x 14', hardcover. 'In the first few years of Terry and the Pirates, Milton Caniff invented the visual and textual language that defines the very vocabulary of all adventure and character-based comic art…. It is the greatest adventure comic strip ever done-a genuine masterpiece of its art form.' - Howard V. Chaykin (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Volume 2 of this landmark series-reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs-features the iconic 1936 daily and Sunday adventures, which continue their separate paths until the end of August when the stories-and cast of characters-are happily united once and for all. In the Sunday Saga, Pat and Cap'n Blaze have it out across a checker board! Then things get really hot when the Dragon Lady and her men lay siege to Blaze's encampment! A twist of fate puts Pat in charge of the Dragon Lady's forces, but they're mistaken for soldier-of-fortune pirates when the Chinese Army storms their position. It takes timely intervention from a surprising source to gain their freedom. Meanwhile, in the Daily Saga, fists fly when Terry, Connie, and Pat are taken prisoner by the insidious Captain Judas-and sparks fly when the boys have their first meeting with beautiful, blonde Burma! The famous strips from March 16-21 steamed up the national audience and became one of the most imitated sequences in comic strip history. Later, cat claws are unsheathed against the backdrop of plague on the planation run by Stan and Wendy Wingate, Burma takes a dive, and with the daily and Sunday strips integrated into a unified storyline the boys once again confront the Dragon Lady before running afoul (accent on the foul!) of Papa Pyzon. The Library of American Comics and Clover Press are proud to publish Terry and the Pirates: The Master Collection, the ultimate edition of Caniff's masterpiece. We present the Sundays in an unmatched color fidelity and larger than they have ever before been reprinted-an unparalleled upgrade that no Terry fan can afford to pass up.

'In [these] pages, we see Milton Caniff emerging as one of the most gifted writers of narrative in the American 20th century. We see more clearly now that he was engaged in writing and drawing a picaresque novel, as full of adventures as Don Quixote, Tom Jones, or Huckleberry Finn.' - Pete Hamill - The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 3, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! The Dragon Lady gets a bang out of her time with Papa Pyzon, but Terry, Pat, and Connie escape, only to have their first meeting with the lowest of the low, Tony Sandhurst-and is Pat in for a surprise when he meets Mrs. Sandhurst! Despite saving Sandhurst's miserable life on multiple occasions, Tony connives to bring charges against Pat. Friends and a former lover help acquit him, even as Connie finds a new ally, the gentle giant, Big Stoop. Burma and Captain Judas both make return appearances, and the year ends with Terry, Burma, and Connie assisting ragtag Chinese peasants, unaware a new menace grows near. The Library of American Comics and Clover Press are proud to publish Terry and the Pirates: The Master Collection, the ultimate edition of Caniff's masterpiece.

'Before Caniff introduced the Dragon Lady to Pat Ryan, before Burma and Raven Sherman and Normandie?Drake fell for our hero, there was not a hint of sex-real sex-to be found in the American newspaper strip. Caniff changed all that.' - Jules Feiffer The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 4, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! Warlord Klang makes life rough for Terry, Connie, and Burma, but they find an unlikely ally when-for the first and only time-the Dragon Lady and Burma appear in the same story! In one of the strip's most famous sequences the Dragon Lady changes her scales, seizing Klang's troops and turning them into a force to fight a hostile invading army. Meanwhile, Hunter Yurk and young Nastalthia ('Nasty') Smythe-Heatherstone stir up trouble, and a reunion with Pat and Big Stoop isn't enough to prevent a cat-fight over Nasty's wealthy papa between Burma and conniving Drusilla Crail. When Burma again takes it on the lam, the boys agree to a dangerous mission in Indo-China for Mr. Smythe-Heatherstone. This tabloid-sized Volume 4 containing the 1938 dailies and Sundays is an unparalleled upgrade that no Terry fan can afford to pass up. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

When the dust settles the three kids are scooped up and held captive in an expansive net that also leaves Pat and the Dragon Lady in the clutches of Warlord Klang!

'Terry significantly altered and dominated the landscape of the newspaper comic strip. [Caniff's] work is notable for its reliance on character instead of plot to dictate the action. The other thing Caniff brought to the comic strip was sex. Terry's female characters practically oozed sexuality in a way that previous strips had never dared.' - The Harrisburg Patriot News The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 8, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! Pat Ryan's bittersweet reunion with the entire Sandhurst family-including young daughter Merrily-is cut short when they are captured and placed in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. Even worse, human weasel Tony Sandhurst is revealed as an Axis conspirator! Pat revs up an escape for Normandie, Merrily, and himself, but their path to freedom intersects with the Dragon Lady. When the Sandhurst women find themselves on their own behind enemy lines, their privations finally end in the same U.S. Army camp hospital where Terry Lee is recuperating! Terry has happy encounters with nurse Taffy Tucker and aviator Flip Corkin, and a less-pleasant encounter with the conniving redhead known only as Rouge!

'In Terry and the Pirates all the storytelling tech-niques of the adventure strip fused and a classic style emerged.

Flip Corkin schools Joe Jitsu in good ol' American know-how before he schools Terry about the ins-and-outs of being a fighter pilot. The October 17th Sunday page-as Terry earns his wings and Flip delivers 'The Pilot's Creed'-is so powerful it was read into the Congressional Record. Before that can happen, wily Rouge abducts Taffy Tucker and gives her amnesia before slipping away! Taffy is in safe hands, however, when she falls under the wing of Connie, Big Stoop, and Navy Lieutenant Pat Ryan! Taffy's reunion with her memory and with Flip coincides with the arrival of Flight Lieutenant Tote Bonny and Grett Murmur, while Terry investigates the French Captain Midi, whom some find almost-hypnotic.

Lawless days like the mid-1930s needed the toughest policemen to dispense justice-men like Dick Tracy! In Volume 3 of his long-running series, the bold detective tangles with Zora Arson, her escaped-con brother, Boris, and the evil 'Cutie'-who gets cute by springing a death trap involving two famished bobcats! Clover Press and The Library of American Comics are re-presenting Chester Gould's earliest Dick Tracy stories in the larger format used throughout most books in the series, so Tracy's battles against gangsters look bigger and better than ever. The action hits closer to home when the Tracy family's acquaintance, Toby Townley, learns that justice is blind after the small grift she runs makes her realize that prison stripes are the new black. Then Dick Tracy tries an experiment in reform, transforming hardened criminal 'Lips' Manlis into straight-arrow Bob Honor - but is it true there's no Honor among thieves? This new edition of Dick Tracy Volume 3 puts Chester Gould's great stories into a great package! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Faceless foes bookend the stories in Dick Tracy Volume 4, the latest entry in the Clover Press/Library of American Comics reissue of the original six Dick Tracy volumes in the larger format that became the series standard. The intrepid detective and his friends tackle invisible enemies when they square off against the notorious Purple Cross Gang and their masked leader. Later, Tracy and Pat Patton come to grips - and blows! - with The Blank, whose look predates The Question, whose name predates The Shining, and whose unmasked face harkens back to Lon Chaney as Quasimodo! Sandwiched between those two tales, Tracy is caught in a web of intrigue along with three amoral young girls, millionaire wastrel Johnny Mintworth and his mother, plus the powerful mobs fronted by 'Collie' Vinsso and Danny Supeena.
