Friday Fun DIZZY DAMES Moronica in "Woman on the Street"

As we mentioned last week, there was a slew of "dumb blonde" comics in the early 1950s...

...including this anthology, Dizzy Dames, which carried the headline "Screwballs in Skirts" above the title logo!

Illustrated by Owen Fitzgerald and probably scripted by editor/art director Richard E Hughes, this never-reprinted tale from ACG's Dizzy Dames #1 (1950) features a stereotypical blonde with the rather insulting name of "Moronica".

The other ongoing strips feature equally-demeaning names for the female leads including Knothead Nellie, Man-Huntin' Minnie of Delta Pu, and Dee Licious!
To be fair to the creatives, the actual characters were unique and distinctive, not just clones of each other!

Reading Room / Halloween Horror ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN "Civic Spirit"

Some of the tales of this year's Presidential campaign are so unbelievable...

...you'd think they were taken from a comic book!

Written by Richard Hughes, penciled by Bob Lubbers, and inked by John Celardo, this tale of ghosts, graft, and government appeared in ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #10 (1950).

If only we could use such supernatural solutions to remove real-life grifters from local, state, and federal office...

CoronaVirus Comics ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN "Higher Power!"

On the Christian sabbath we ask "when science fails, can faith find a way"?

Perhaps this short. from ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #91 (1957) holds the answer!

Did writer/editor Richard E Hughes and artist Ogden Whitney base this tale on an oft-heard urban legend?

Oddly, when the story was reprinted in ACG's Unknown Worlds #18 (1962), it was retitled...

...and nobody can recall why!

Trump Reading Room COMMANDER BATTLE AND THE ATOMIC SUB "Payoff Battle!"

When last we left the Atomic Commandos...

...I'm sure I saw this plot reused on Voyage to the Botom of the Sea in the 1960s!

Written by Richard Hughes and illustrated by Ken Landau, this never-reprinted tale from ACG's Commander Battle and the Atomic Sub #5 (1955) was the second and last issue of the new anti-communist direction the series took.

Writer/editor Richard Hughes and artist Charles Sultan merrily combine science and the supernatural in this wild tale from ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #6 (1949), setting a tone that would countinue for the remainder of the series...
