One of the greatest newspaper action adventure newspaper strips of all times was STEVE CANYON, as created by MILTON CANIFF (who formerly had written and created TERRY AND THE PIRATES). Steve Canyon is a World War II veteran with the Army Air Force Air Transport Command; and, occasionally in civilian life, operates his own worldwide air transport company, Horizons Unlimited, while also serving in the U. S. Air Force Reserve. Steve's adventures take him around the world, leading him into two-fisted, hard boiled adventures with an intriguing host of friends and enemies.
Steve's adventures continue in oversize trade paperback format with this complete episode (February 8 to August 8, 1955) set in Formosa (also known as Taiwan, the seat of the Nationalist Chinese government after 1949), as he bodyguards an instrument specialist sent to Formosa to train Nationalist Chinese pilots, and discovers a black market operation in polio vaccines. Featured in this episode are DOE REDWOOD, HOMER HALL, GILBERTA HALL, HOLLY HALL, REED KIMBERLY, and ROY HIMMERSKORN.
