adamstrange Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Not a book but I really like Giolitti's work in early '50's Dell comics like Jungle Jim, Sgt. Preston, etc. and particularly in the Tonto series. So when a couple of pages showed up in last week's Heritage auction ... well, you know, one was delivered this morning and here's a panel from it (The scene takes place at night) Not everyone might get excited about Tonto but I'm pleased as peach I read about Giolitti a few years back, a masterful draftsman indeed! Great purchase. Very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some variation in the MM covers Billy. Sometimes Torch flies in from the right to rescue a bound woman, sometimes he flies in from the left to rescue a bound boy. Sometimes you get the bonus of BOTH a bound boy and a bound girl to be rescued And occasionally he is in the middle of the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
