Shades of Terry and the Pirates! Steve roams the Far East in Volume 10, learning that politics makes strange bedfellows as he first teams up with Cheetah in Taiwan, then goes undercover in Hanoi to rescue “Herself” Muldoon! In between, he encounters another femme fatale from his past, now harrying the Hong Kong waters under the nom de guerre “Madame Hook.” Sports are also prominent, as gangsters squeeze Poteet and Shaky Blopp in order to get points shaved on the basketball court. Steve races to stop a Communist plot to drop an atomic bomb on a football stadium (!), and baseball works its magic to save the day-and an old friend-in far-off Mahnay.

Milton Caniff is synonymous with adventure and spine-tingling excitement, and they’re on display throughout Steve Canyon, Volume 10.

Six white horses laid a president to rest as a nation wept, but Milton Caniff knew that a man—and a nation—must carry on. In these stories from 1963-64, the globetrotting Steve Canyon foils diabolical enemy plots in half a dozen countries. Steve goes undercover in Turkey, tries not to get clawed by his old “friend” Cheetah during an encounter in western Mexico, and tackles a communist plot in Africa. Things are no quieter on the home front, as Copper Calhoon and Summer Olsen have it out, while cousin Poteet helps uncover a foreign agent planted at the 1964 World’s Fair. It’s action, humor, and mystery in the distinctive Caniff style in these never-before-reprinted daily and full-color Sunday comics.
