Number 1494: Sandhurst is a skunk! The continuing saga of Terry and the Pirates

You can see this is developing into quite a soap opera, which was part of what made Milton Caniff’s Terry and the Pirates one of the most popular newspaper comics of its day.

Here's an overdue notice that Connie and Big Stoop are racial stereotypes, and my apologies to anyone who may be offended.

This is a reprint from Harvey Comics, #7, from 1947:

Number 1477: Dashing through the snow with Terry and the Pirates

Terry, Connie, and Pat Ryan go to the rescue of Tony Sandhurst, who has been kidnapped and about to be tortured by some Chinese. Chasing after the cowardly, greedy Sandhurst is noble on Pat’s part, since he is in love with Normandie, Sandhurst’s wife.

It is from Milton Caniff’s epic Terry and the Pirates #6 (1947), published by Harvey.
