                                Très beau strip du 28 décembre 1956 de Rip Kirby. Je suis tombé sous le charme de la première case qui amène très bien les deux suivantes.

John Prentice was a cartoonist who took over the comic strip Rip Kirby upon the death of the strip's creator, Alex Raymond.
Prentice was born in Whitney, Texas. From 1940-1946 he served in the United States Navy. After briefly attending the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, he moved to New York City and worked in a variety of illustrator jobs before being tapped to replace Alex Raymond.
