Description:Mandrake the Magicianbegan as a daily strip on June 11, 1934, and whether Lee Falk knew it as a sophomore at the University of Illinois, he was making history. The daily strip ended after a 79-year run, and the Sunday strip, which started in 1935, ran for 68 years. Any fan of comic strips is almost certainly familiar with Falks other creation,The Phantom, which started in 1936 and continues to this day.

Mandrake the Magicianwhisked readers to exotic locales (often fictional amalgams of the Orient, the Middle East, India or Eastern Europe) and immersed them in extended narratives with memorable villains and a colorful support cast.

Contains stories: Mandrake in Hollywood, Sonny the Child Movie Star, Mandrake and the Haunted ouse, Blozz the Champion, Mandrake in Love, Visitors from Space, The Deep South, and Mandrake in Cockaigne.
