Dagar Desert Hawk

Dagar Desert Hawk #14

Dagar Desert Hawk #22*

Dagar Desert Hawk published eight bi-monthly issues from Fox Feature Syndicate (starting with #14 and ending with #23). And yes, someone at Fox couldn’t count right and skipped two issues.

Cover art on all these issues is by Edmond Good, who eventually launched a long career for Tupperware as Artistic Director. Inside #19 (August 1948) Dagar saves Leandra the reporter after her group of pyramid tomb raiders are ambushed by Slim Ben’s clan of desert dwellers. After being saved Leandra states “You have a beautiful horse Dagar.” To which Dagar calmly replies “We’ll talk about beauty later.” Smooth move Dagar!
