A great series (2 volumes are out and the third is due in August) for the dad who loves Indiana Jones. These impressive books collect the color Sunday comic strip adventures of the rough and tumble Easy in an extra-large format (10.5” x 14.8”) to capture the glory of the Sunday comic sections of old. Written and beautifully illustrated by Roy Crane, Captain Easy started as a character in Crane’s classic "Wash Tubbs" but grew so popular that he took over the Sunday strip in 1933. Crane deftly juggles the high adventure with humor and satire. Kids can enjoy this one with Dad too, with its large, colorful pages (but again, because of the time period, there are some racial stereotypes here as well).
