MANDRAKE THE MAGICIAN HC VOL 02 THE COMPLETE NEWSPAPER DAILIES Previously Offered Thru Diamond
Description
Mandrake the Magician began as a daily strip on June 11, 1934, and this second volume continues the complete newspaper dailies reprints of Lee Falk’s pioneering adventures. Fan-favorite artist Phil Davis paints vivid, motion-filled panels that bring Mandrake, Lothar, and Princess Narda to life, pairing swift wordplay with stylish, era-appropriate art. These stories move Mandrake from exotic locales to perilous encounters and showcase the hero’s mastery of illusion, disguise, and rescue. Volume 2 collects six adventures from the mid-1930s, including Return of the Clay Camel, The Slave Traders of Tygandi, Mandrake in the Lost World, In the Cobra's Grip, and Mandrake in America, plus additional strips that illustrate the evolving cast and ongoing battles with crafty villains. A landmark of early comics storytelling, this volume preserves the strip's charm, humor, and sense of wonder that inspired later superhero adventures.
