Our second volume, reprinting the complete run of Stan Drake s classic American comic strip The Heart of Juliet Jones, reprints dailies from August 15, 1955 to November 30, 1957, with an introduction by American Flagg creator, Howard Chaykin.
For a soap opera, and that’s what this strip is, there’s a baseline humanity in most of the stories that the broadcast soaps were and are about. And Stan Drake’s art is so, so, so good for this. The little details, his use of spot blacks, and composition is something to see.
