Terry & The Pirates: The Dragon Lady

Terry & the Pirates was a popular newspaper comic that became a comic book.  It also became a movie serial, which I have watched.  Despite being the titled character, Terry was not really the hero, but more of a (slightly annoying - in the serial anyway) kid.  His friend, Pat Ryan, was the man of action type.  Pappy's Golden Age Comics Blogzine posted this edition from the late 1940's.
