Out Jan. 18, 2013
Comics legend Alex Toth's piece de resistance, the complete Dell
adventures of Zorro, is finally available in a full-color, archival

told, set the standard for comic book storytelling with his Zorro tales.
Cited by comic book artists, historians, and fans as some of Toth's
best work, these stories have been painstakingly digitally reconstructed
to look better than the original Dell comic books in this deluxe
reprint, which also includes tons of supplemental material.
