In the early 1950's David Wright made an unusual career move for a successful commercial and pinup artist, he turned to comics. An early product of this new direction was the strip Judy, which he began in 1953 with John Hunter (writing as Peter Meriton) providing scripts.

Judy is a standard adventure strip for the time-- a young, beautiful girl is thrust into danger with her partner, Ricky, and their treasure-hunting adventures take them to exotic locales all over the world in a series of loosely plotted melodramas.

Judy is not the equal of Carol Day due to weak plots and cardboard characters, but it maintains a strong appeal because of the art and its adventure premise, and it was a great vehicle for Wright's beautiful cheesecake panels. It is far from uninteresting or unworthy of preservation, and in our view, it's a minor gem by one of the greatest strip artists to practice the art and well worth fans' attention.

We have collected the first four Judy stories for this volume and hope you will agree.
