DescriptionThere’s something about Terry and the Pirates that I just find compelling. It’s not just the stories (although they’re great), or the artwork, or the characters. It’s truly the balance of all three. Although he was fantastic with action sequences, it’s how he handled the quiet moments that I find so wonderful. I’ve recently picked up some great examples of how Caniff used white space to create dramatic tension and how he portrays the emotions of anticipation and concern. See this strip from August of 1941 (from the “Raven Nevermore” story). Note that there isn’t any dialogue in the last two of the four panels. But, Terry’s face in the third panel, and his posture as he heads off in the night tell volumes.Social/Sharing |

Great one! The poetry of the last panels, of course, but also packed to the brim with great characters (Burma AND Raven!)

Really nice daily. I too love everything about the Terry series. I love the moody, melancholic Terry. He would never back down from adventure but the slightest slight from a girl and he would be packing his bags.

I love the tiny family grouping in the background of the last panel- just to put the button on the scene. Brilliant strip.
