A collection of the first six "Jon Sable, Freelance" comic books from the 1980s, about an American game warden in Africa who turns urban mercenary after his wife and children are killed by poachers. Later he takes on a hidden life as a successful children's book writer. Pretty outlandish premise, but Grell makes it work, and his art and writing were miles ahead of most of the competition at the time, with a bit of light and dark humor here and there. The stories are a little dated in style now, but the nostalgia factor makes up for it. ( )
