Book excerpt: This is a reprint of the first comic book created by black artists, writers and publisher, jam-packed with fast action, African Adventure, good clean humor and fantasy. Every brush stroke and pen line in the drawings on these pages are by negro artists. This publication is another milestone in the splendid history of negro journalism. But in this first issue we meet Ace Harlem (a detective), the Dew Dillies (pixie-like children), Lion Man (jungle defender) and Sugarfoot (Amos and Andy type humor). There is also a two-page text story, a one page humor strip, and a quartet of funnies called Hep Chicks on Parade.
