Space Hero Saturdays STAR HUNTERS "Part 2: Beyond the Solar Rim"

...a black ops team consisting of talented, but somewhat eccentric, specialists heads into space.

Well, that can't be good...
Be here next Saturday for the thrilling finale, and see if Yano will survive her first space walk...
It appears this was originally intended as the second issue of Star Hunters, before being combined with the first issue in the double-sized comic DC Super-Stars V2 #18 (1977), to cover more ground at one time during the audience's intro to the characters.

Friday Fun WHACK! "Ghastly Dee-fective Comics"

Get out your red/blue 3-D glasses (red on the left, blue on the right)...
 ...as we present a never-reprinted tale co-created by Joe Kubert!
This satirical, silly story, penciled by Norman Maurer and inked by Joe Kubert for St John's Whack! #1 (1953), was was especially-designed for use as a 3-D story (unlike some comic tales that were adapted from 2-D to 3-D during the 1950s 3-D craze.) 
Whack! was one of numerous MAD comic book clones that popped up in the early 1950s.

Reading Room MYSTERY IN SPACE "Singling"

A well-done graphic story can be understood without captions or word balloons...
...as this never-reprinted tale from DC's Mystery in Space #111 (1980), illustrated by Jim Aparo, demonstrates!
Scripter Gerald J Brown penned only a few stories before disappearing from comics.
He was also a writer/editor of the prozine Night Voyages. which ran for 10 issues between 1977 and 1984.
This particular issue of Mystery in Space was the first issue of a revival of the legendary anthology which was cancelled 14 years earlier, in 1966.
Sadly, the book only lasted for 7 issues before being cancelled again...
