Star Hawks, book 1: 1977-1978
Ron Goulart et Gil Kane2017

In the mid 1970s, when science-fiction was primarily read by hard-core fans and Star Wars had yet to enter the cultural zeitgeist, Ron Goulart created Star Hawks, an innovative two-tier science-fiction comic strip that brought a comic book design sensibilty to the newspaper page.
But Star Hawks was shelved by the syndicate before it began. Then Star Wars was released and with science-fiction suddenly in vogue, Star Hawks was dusted off and rushed into newspapers. Forty years after its debut, Star Hawks still looks fresh and exciting. This first of three volumes from the Library of American Comics reproduces each strip on its own page so readers can relish Gil Kane's incredible artistic achievement, and also features an introduction by Ron Goulart.
