Reading Room GORGO "Land of Long Ago" Part 1

Most Sci-Fi/Fantasy Fans are Familiar with Gorgo... 

...either as a kool '60s British kaiju movie, or a comic book series featuring pre-Marvel work by Steve (Spider-Man) Ditko!

Gorgo herself (she was the mother of a baby Gorgo) was a mutated dinosaur.
But the comic series included a couple of stories where Gorgo met much more"traditional" thunder lizards!

To Be Concluded Thursday!

This never-reprinted tale from Charlton's Gorgo #23 (1965) was the kaiju's final new tale at the company!
Written by Joe Gill, penciled by Bill Molino, and inked by Ernie Bache, it's an interesting send-off to the character.
Ditko had left the book after #16 in 1963 due to growing ongoing commitments to Marvel on The Amazing Spider-Man book, The Incredible Hulk in Tales to Astonish, The Invincible Iron Man in Tales of Suspense, and Doctor Strange in Strange Tales!

Friday Fun HOMER THE HAPPY GHOST "Dinosaur Egg"

Atlas Comics had a Casper the Friendly Ghost "Clone"...

...written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, who encounted...a dinosaur!

This never-reprinted story from Atlas' Homer the Happy Ghost #13 (1957) is no sillier than the literally thousands of tales about Harvey's Casper, and a heckuva lot wittier!
