Product Description
Noel Sickles drew comics for three brief years, yet his groundbreaking work on the 1930s aviation adventure series Scorchy Smith is a milestone in the history of newspaper comic strips. Over the past 70 years, however, readers have seen only occasional excerpts of this seminal work. Now, IDW's Library of American Comics presents Scorchy Smith and The Art of Noel Sickles, a comprehensive, oversized volume that collects, for the first time, every Sickles Scorchy strip, from December 1933 through November 1936.

Ever since discovering that Noel Sickles was Milton Caniff's inspirational, groundbreaking partner, I've been longing for someone to publish his story and experiences. I received my wish today with the arrival of Scorchy Smith and the Art of Noel Sickles. This is a massive, deluxe volume, covering almost every facet of Sickle's career. IDW reaches a new pinnacle in their collective works on the classic cartoonists and illustrators with this publication. It's chock full of illustrations from Sickle's career as an illustrator post Scorchy Smith, as well as early work.
I have the two volume set of Kitchen Sink Scorchy strips from the 1980s, and this volume outshines them completely. This is a large book, and absolutely stunning in layout, design and production.
If you have a soul and appreciation of the finest in comic strip art and classical illustration, don't hesitate another moment; order this book today! It's a sterling companion to the Terry and the Pirates series also published by IDW.
