Building on the critical success of Hermes Press’
complete reprint of Alex Toth's Zorro, Hermes is now issuing the first comic
book incarnation of the masked, caped defender of old California, with a
complete reprint of Dell’s Pre-Code Zorro. Before the Comics Code tried to take
all the fun out of comic books, Zorro burst onto comic store racks all over the
county, introducing many youngsters to this classic archetypal character.
Now for the first time in over sixty years read the
original comic books that introduced Zorro to readers all over the world. Starting with Four Color #228, Dell Comics
introduced Zorro with a book based on the original Johnston McCulley
story. Featured in this deluxe full
color reprint are all of Dell’s Pre-Code Zorro comics: issues 228, 425, 497, 538, 574, 617, and
732. These stories feature artwork by
Everett Raymond Kinstler (497, 538, and 574), Bob Fujitani, Bob Correa and
Alberto Giolitti. Collects seven
complete issues.
Make sure you check it out, as Zorro has never looked
this good!
