Out May 7, 2013.
One of the truly great Sunday action/adventure newspaper strips of the
1940s is finally being reprinted in a deluxe archival edition. Frank
Robbins' masterpiece, Johnny Hazard, set the standard for action and
adventure, and remains unequaled. Comics historian Ron Goulart observed
that with Johnny Hazard, Robbins, "... staged his action like the
movies. He had a lushly inked style, rich in black." The Sunday version
of the strip which ran different story lines from the dailies (also
being offered by Hermes Press) features non-stop, wartime action with
stories which are exciting today as they were when they were created.
