The fourth volume opens with Steve as the newly-minted Light Colonel bringing the jet age to the town of Indian Cape - and the natives are after an old friend's scalp! Can Steve and new sidekick Pipper the Piper find a way to still an entire town's wrath? Canyon encounters old friends throughout 1953 and into 1954- Princess Snowflower, the irascible Dogie Hogan, and the leader of a band of Hooligans on horseback. Of course, there are girls, girls, girls - Herself Muldoon, Summer Olson, plus Miss Mizzou, still wearing that trenchcoat! Then Steve looks up the Indexes, and the sparks really start to fly near the top of the world! Edited and designed by Dean Mullaney, with historical essays by Bruce Canwell, Steve Canyon is presented in a matching hardcover set to the Library of American Comics's Eisner Award-winning Terry and the Pirates.

There are a few other returning characters here; Caniff's stage covers the world, but it's a small world in which old acquaintances are always popping up. Caniff is still the master of the cartoonist's pen and the written word. Every strip shows careful planning; they're almost all little stories with a kicker at the end, which together work to advance the main story. In some ways "Steve Canyon" is a more mature strip than "Terry and the Pirates", but that earlier strip has more heart and charm. (
