Not vintage and mentioned above, but B. Clay Moore/Steven Griffin's Hawaiian Dick is awesome. Clay is TC member "Hawaiian Dick."

It was a three-issue mini series last year and recently collected in a trade paperback called "Hawaiian Dick: Byrd of Paradise" that includes some extra strips, sketches, and a great illustrated drink menu for the bar where Byrd hangs out.

It's been described as "tiki noir." It's a noir-ish detective piece set in Hawaii in 1953. It's full of tikis.

I think it would appeal to all tiki freaks.

Also, they have a new four-issue mini series "Hawaiian Dick: the Last Resort" coming "soon," again from Image Comics. I can't wait!
