This continues the Buz Sawyer strips from the end of the war, in which the Maharani of Batu is found to be miraculously alive, and accidentally causes the death of Tot Winter. She then is apparently killed in the act of kidnaping Buz. Buz accepts a job as airline troubleshooter and goes with Sweeney to Greenland to apprehend a madman. ( )

"Buz Sawyer" was the first adventure strip I remember reading in the newspapers. It enthralled me, and I still have a soft spot for this good-hearted strip of heroic men and gorgeous strong women. The characters are not subtle; the villains are always squash-faced and ape-like, the heroes strong and dashing, the women lithe and athletically beautiful, except for the old maids who are scarecrowlike. I still love this strip, partly from nostalgia and partly from genuine merit. This first adventure introduces Lt. Buz Sawyer, and his friend Sweeney, in the Pacific fighting the Japanese during WWII. And somehow, even down behind enemy lines, Sawyer always finds a beautiful woman to woo. ( )
