There has always been something about the pirate – aka privateer, freebooter, swashbuckler and buccaneer – that has stirred the adventurous spirit in American youth.

For four glorious issues Hillman Periodicals published PIRATES COMICS (1950), an all-too-short celebration of these independent adventurers. Here is the entire collection on one great book, just as you like it, from Gwandanaland / Midcentury Comics!
