- Description
- Forget the wretched film version and the sappy, upbeat theatrical musical! Harold Gray's original Depression-era Little Orphan Annie was in fact a tough, Dickensian melodrama with a sharp political viewpoint, filled with a bizarre cast of treacherous villains as wells as the never-say-die Annie and "Daddy" Warbucks. Gray's artwork is recognized as a high point in comics - gritty, atmospheric, and proletarian in its depiction of the drifters, down-and-outers, and criminal class. Compelling, and beautifully rendered. Each of these 160-page volumes reprints a full year of strips from the classic early '30s period. Each also includes an informative introduction by comics historian R. C. Harvey.
