Yes, it’s Buz Sawyer, who, when he isn’t pushing experimental aircraft to the limit, is daring to — is that a flying saucer?

Ripped from the headlines of the day, these eleven stories propel ace troubleshooter Buz Sawyer from Africa to South America to the Arctic Circle, from the heart of a hurricane to a plague of ravenous locusts. Meanwhile, back home, a femme fatale seduces Buz’s C.O. to steal military secrets. Then, it’s every parent’s worst nightmare — Buz and Christy’s new baby is kidnapped right in the hospital!  Roy Crane, dean of the golden age of adventure comic strips, peppers these rollicking tales with rapid-fire action, suspense, intrigue, humor, unforgettable characters, and brilliant art. Now, at last, you can enjoy these stories, unseen since the 1950s. Look inside — and brace yourself for a wild ride!
