In "The Golden Lion of Genghis Khan," Gordon ventures into the mysterious Khafu country with Kaänga, Ann, and N'geeso, driven by a mission to secure radium for medical use. When the Khafu queen captures Ann and schemes to kill her with radium exposure, Kaänga steps in to save her—turning the queen's own plan against her. Written by Frank Riddell and illustrated by Jim Mooney, this 1944 adventure blends peril and daring in a tale that unfolds with the quiet intensity of its era. The cover, by Joe Doolin, captures the story’s exotic tension in bold, striking detail.
