    (Sunday Page - 13 octobre 1940) Connie, la première héroïne réaliste de la BD de science-fiction, a vécu ses aventures de 1927 à 1944. Son succès a été particulièrement grand en France, où cette aviatrice-reporter a débarqué en 1937, dans Hop-Là. Elle a connu bien des supports et des noms différents en français. La planche proposée dans cette vente est rarissime. En effet, un incendie aurait détruit la majorité des planches originales. Celle-ci, qui comporte une belle grande case, est sans doute la seule disponible sur le marché.
