Connie Dailies

Connie is one of the great forgotten masterpieces of American newspaper comics, drawn by the supremely talented Frank Godwin, an illustrator whose draftsmanship rivaled the finest artists of the Golden Age. Debuting in 1929, Connie followed the adventures of a spirited, independent young woman navigating a world of romance, intrigue, and globe-trotting excitement, years before such heroines became commonplace in popular culture. Godwin's linework is breathtaking in its detail and fluidity, blending a classical illustrative tradition with the dynamic energy of the comics page. The Connie Dailies series collects these rare strips in their original sequence, offering readers a chance to rediscover a landmark achievement in comic strip art that has long deserved wider recognition.
