content: Mandrake the Magician was created and originally drawn by Lee Falk in 1924, although he did not submit the comic for print and distribution to King Features until 1934. Harold "Fred" Fredericks took over art for the strip in 1964 and continues to draw the strip today. The story features Mandrake, a magician with superpowers, along with his compatriots in the fight against crime. In this strip, a corporal gives Mandrake a self-guiding, one-man missle to fight off any unwanted "visitors" from his headquarters.
