CONNIE: Pacific Comics Club 2 Book Set

Connie is an American adventure comic strip created by the cartoonist Frank Godwin, who introduced a book illustration style to the comics page. The strip evolved as Connie Kurridge went through various situations and occupations, including aviator, stunt pilot, charity worker, reporter and detective. Villains were fooled by her beauty and underestimated her agility and resourcefulness. The strip ran from 1927 to 1941 for the Ledger Syndicate. Connie debuted as a Sunday page on November 13, 1927. The strip was syndicated in France as Cora in the weekly paper Le Journal de Mickey. Captives of the Space Pirates & Master of the Jovian Moons: Daily Series X and Y 1939!
