Connie Sundays 1929 - 1932
When Frank Godwin’s Connie debuted its Sunday pages on April 28, 1929 for the Ledger Syndicate, the American newspaper landscape was rapidly changing. Comic strips like Tarzan, Prince Valiant and Flash Gordon began appearing. The "Roaring Twenties" were drawing to a close, and the lighthearted, comedic "flapper strips" that dominated the decade were
about to collide with the harsh realities of the Great Depression. Amidst this shifting cultural tide, Connie emerged not merely as entertainment, but as a historic pioneer. This collection of Sunday strips from 1929 to 1932—lovingly restored to their original, vibrant color, rescues a vital piece of comic history from obscurity. It invites
you to step back into the golden age of illustration, to experience a narrative art form in mid-evolution, and to follow the thrilling exploits of a pioneering heroine who truly lived up to her name. In the years to come Connie transitions from a stylish, modern working girl into American comics' first true female adventure hero.
