Reading Room SPACE ADVENTURES "Exterminators"

It's summertime and insects are everywhere!

So, here's a story from 1969 that'll bug you...

...with its' outdated stereotypes about both humans and insects!

Illustrated by prolific Argentinan artist "Eccio" aka Enio Legisamon, this lead tale from Charlton's Space Adventures V2N5 (1969) is a time capsule about the way our society viewed professional women during the early days of Womens' Lib.

BTW, the writer is unknown...and I suspect he'd want it kept that way...

Island of Giant Insects

Volume 2

Reading Room SPACE ADVENTURES "A Better World than Ours"

A never-reprinted tale with roots in Western (ie European, not Wild West) culture...

...particularly the repressive 18th-19th centuries!

This Joe Gill-scripted and Eccio-rendered tale from Charlton's Space Adventures V2N8 (1969) has it's roots in exhausted European 18th and 19th Century sailors' obsession with primitive island societies which they considered to be the incarnation of an innocent "paradise"!

Of course, being a Comics Code Authority-approved book, the creators couldn't present what Selig was probably doing besides "fi-shing"...
