CELEBRATING THE 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE VERY FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE ROCKETEER! Ace stunt pilot Cliff Secord has returned from his New York Adventure to a West Coast steeped in paranoia over the looming war in Europe. Having finally had enough of his near-death scrapes as the high-flying Rocketeer¸ the only thing in Cliff's crosshairs is The Great Race: a prestigious¸ winner-take-all air race that runs from California to France! Maybe it's finally time to smarten up and fly straight . . . by taking his best girl Betty to Paris! But other parties want to win the race for their own nefarious ends¸ and Cliff will need to decide which prize is truly the most valuable of all. BONUS FEATURE: Each issue will contain an oral history-featuring Dave Stevens's friends¸ family and fellow artists-all culled together by Kelvin Mao¸ longtime friend of Stevens's and the director of the forthcoming documentary on the beloved artist!
