ALLEY OOP AND THE HUNT FOR THE TEXAS PTEROSAURS 1976 By Dave Graue

Great new time-travel stories with the first comics hero to cross time into all the eras of the past. Travel with Alley Oop across the mysterious swamp to the mountain caves of the ancient Texas pterosaur riders, where he trains one (like his own Dinny, back in prehistoric times) to obey him! Then travel to the West Indies where Alley encounters that "big chief of ships," Christopher Columbus, in 1504. Plus adventures in the present day, too. The entire year of daily strips from 1976 — never before reprinted. Our good hearted but naive caveman survives his worldly adventures, sometime by wit, sometimes by brute force. He's caveman strong and never shy to use his muscle or his stone axe to even up the odds. Dave Graue began on Oop as V.T. Hamlin's assistant, but took over the strip and ran with it for decades. Wonderful work, from the lost era of great adventure comic strips.
