Rick Masters and Twin Eagle

Comic Book Review:  The Green Lama Vol.1 HardcoverThe first thing you notice about Dark Horse Comics’ Green Lama Archives is a lack of Green Lama. Oh, he’s in here and drawn beautifully by Mac Raboy as promised, but out of four issues reprinted, we get exactly twenty four pages of Green Lama adventures.Fortunately, the rest of the stories are good, writes Robert Langro, including this one:Rick Masters is the secondary adventure strip involving a freelance aviator and his faithful Native-American “sidekick” Twin Eagle. These two seem to have the classic comic knack of getting involved in other people’s messes. Danger and adventure find them at every turn with Twin Eagle usually being injured and their plane damaged in some way. By the fourth installment I actually started to feel sorry for the poor bastards or at least hoped that Rick and Twin Eagle would make sure that they always got the cash in advance.Comment:  So Twin Eagle serves as a hapless "damsel in distress"? Hmm. That doesn't sound very good to me.
