    “In Terry and the Pirates all the storytelling tech-niques of the adventure strip fused and a classic style emerged. Caniff developed and integrated the narrative and its visual expression into a uniform aesthetic balance.” — Jerry Robinson, The Comics The saga continues in Terry and the Pirates Volume 9, reproduced from Milton Caniff's personal set of color syndicate tabloid proofs! Flip Corkin schools Joe Jitsu in good ol’ American know-how before he schools Terry about the ins-and-outs of being a fighter pilot.
