Good fun! Stirring, unsanitary adventure in the best pulpy style.

Any fans of Cerebus will see where Dave Sim got his art style for his first book.

At times it's sexist, racist, or both (Conan fireman-carries the floopy, helpless buxom blonde away, saving her from the ravening cannibalistic rapist black men!). These comics, made in the 70s, tone that down a bit from the stories on which they are based, written in the 30s. It is what it is.
