Uncensored by commercial editorial restrictions, Wood pulled out all the stops producing a thrilling and salacious Cold War spy serial run amok with brutal violence and titillating sex, all in an effort to boost morale and support our troops!

Wally Wood created the Cannon spy adventure strip for the Army's Overseas Weekly newspaper. Since people in the army were adults, he could draw a strip containing adult elements (that is to say, naked chicks) and not worry about the censorship that plagued comic books and newspaper comic strips back in the day. So Cannon did things that made James Bond look like a sissy, and was the toughest MF the commies ever ran into (remember, this was done during the cold war years, when the greatest threat America had, was communism). For the first mon. "Another great Fantagraphics book!" according to Avid Reader. Fantagraphics gives us another great book to add to the collection. This beautiful hardcover edition of Wally Woods' Cannon strips is as eye-popping as all the beautiful ladies and action/adventure you'll find inside. The paper is a thick stock with the nice, sewn-binding you'd expect in a collector's edition or high-end comic strip collection.Woods' art look great in this edition and is an example of his amazing skills as an artist. Extras include an introduction by Howard Cheykin and some comic strips he collaborated with Steve Ditko on. T
