Description
The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 8, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of colour syndicate tabloid proofs!
Pat Ryan's bittersweet reunion with the entire Sandhurst family—including young daughter Merrily—is cut short when they are captured and placed in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. Even worse, human weasel Tony Sandhurst is revealed as an Axis conspirator! Pat revs up an escape for Normandie, Merrily, and himself, but their path to freedom intersects with the Dragon Lady.
When the Sandhurst women find themselves on their own behind enemy lines, their privations finally end in the same U.S. Army camp hospital where Terry Lee is recuperating! Terry has happy encounters with nurse Taffy Tucker and aviator Flip Corkin, and a less-pleasant encounter with the conniving redhead known only as Rouge!
This tabloid-sized Volume 8 containing the 1942 dailies and Sundays is an unparalleled upgrade that no Terry fan can afford to pass up.
