TERRY AND THE PIRATES The Master Collection Volume 3

The Dragon Lady gets a bang out of her time with Papa Pyzon, but Terry, Pat, and Connie escape, only to have their first meeting with the lowest of the low, Tony Sandhurst — and is Pat in for a surprise when he meets Mrs. Sandhurst! Despite saving Sandhurst's miserable life on multiple occasions, Tony connives to bring charges against Pat. Friends and a former lover help acquit him, even as Connie finds a new ally, the gentle giant, Big Stoop. Burma and Captain Judas both make return appearances, and the year ends with Terry, Burma, and Connie assisting ragtag Chinese peasants, unaware a new menace grows near. Reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! "In [these] pages, we see Milton Caniff emerging as one of the most gifted writers of narrative in the American 20th century. We see more clearly now that he was engaged in writing and drawing a picaresque novel, as full of adventures as Don Quixote, Tom Jones, or Huckleberry Finn." - Pete Hamill
