The Mounties At Work

I was recently able to purchase a collection of Zane Grey's King of the Royal Mounted comics from Etsy on the cheap, in cbr (Comic Book Reader, for the uninitiated) format. I'm working through those now and while sharing a 30-or-so-page story here would be awkward, I do plan on adding some of the added features for your viewing pleasure. 

The pages below are from issue number 207, published in 1940. The first image is the cover and I believe the bottom two are the final page and back cover respectively.




I've acquired copies of a number of other publications, some in comic book form and some in short stories, which I look forward to sharing.

Zane Gray' King of The Royal Mounted in The Secret of Roaring River (Part 1)

The following images are copied from the Miles City (Montana) Star newspaper. These specific strips ran from March 7th to 17th in 1939.

The best method of viewing/reading is probably to click on the first image then select the next strip from the menu at the bottom of the page. 











I'll be back later with part two of this particular story. It was not the first King tale to be told in the Star, nor the last. The King strip had already been running for years by 1939 and would continue to do so for several more. I just happened to land on a good hop-on point.
