Anchor Andrews #1 - Matt Baker art + 1st issue

Anchor Andrews #1

Anchor Andrews v1 #1, 1953 - This first issue issue features a bumbling sailor and his misadventures, a comedic character not uncommon during the golden age. The back-up Canteen Kate tale is similar in tone, but with more sophistication and savvy. Impeccably drawn by Matt Baker, her stories first appeared in the war title Fightin' Marines before graduating to her own self-titled (and short lived) series. Consistent with those previous works, this effort by Baker balances realism and humor without sacrificing comedic timing. This issue also includes artwork by Carl Hubbell. Cover by Hubbell. This is 1 of 1 Anchor Andrews issues by Baker. /// key 1st issue
