MANDRAKE THE MAGICIAN HC VOL 03 THE COMPLETE NEWSPAPER DAILIES Previously Offered Thru Diamond

Mandrake the Magician: The Complete Newspaper Dailies Volume 3 collects eight early adventures from the master illusionist's daily strips, dating back to 1934–1935. Renowned writer-artist team Lee Falk and Phil Davis bring Mandrake, Lothar, and Princess Narda to life in bold, brisk serials set against exotic landscapes and cinematic plots such as Hollywood intrigue, haunted houses, and space visitors. This hardcover edition reprints the original dailies in black-and-white, preserving the pace, humor, and suspense that helped define the masked-hero era. Volume 3 continues the complete newspaper dailies series, following Mandrake’s adventures through cocktails of danger, romance, and clever traps, including 'Mandrake in Hollywood,' 'Mandrake and the Haunted House,' 'Visitors from Space,' and 'Mandrake in Cockaigne.' The collaborations—Falk’s storytelling with Davis’s art—established Mandrake as one of comics’ earliest superheroes, influencing the medium’s development and inspiring later generations of mystery and fantasy storytelling.
