One of the benefits of running Atomic Kommie Comics™ is being able to do customized presents for birthdays, holidays, and joyous events like bridal and baby showers (and, at cost, yet)...
I
was preparing items for one such baby shower whose invite
had...unusual...suggestions for nursery decor gifts; aircraft,
specifically fighter aircraft!
(The baby will be a boy, and his dad is in the Air National Guard!)
"No problem", we thought!
After all, Atomic Kommie Comics™ has a whole section on War: Past, Present, & Future™!
So,
we planned several customized items, including a bib, newborn onesie,
wall clock, and 12-month wall calendar, all with the required fighter
theme!
However, a quick glance revealed a minor problem; while we had over a dozen covers with military aircraft, we had only nine with fighters! The others were bombers!
We needed twelve for the calendar!
A quick look thru the extensive Atomic Kommie Comics™ archives showed a whole set of classic comics we hadn't yet touched...Captain Steve Savage and his Jet Fighters!
BINGO!
We selected the three best covers and loaded them up to the calendar template to give us an even dozen images!
Problem solved!
After doing the baby's calendar, we decided to add all three Captain Steve Savage covers to our Korean Police Action kool kollectibles collection for the perusal (and purchase) of all you veterans, relatives of vets, and / or war comics fans!
With
North Korea still rattling sabers at the rest of the world (at least
when the Mid-East isn't exploding into the headlines), it seemed
like the right time (just before the 4th of July!) to return Steve
Savage to duty!
Get Steve Savage in your sights, before he gets his sights on you!
