Monday Madness TIME WARP "Righteous Ones"

As, thanks to Vlad the Puta, rumbles of nuclear war grow ever louder...

...we thought we'd take a look at a possible result of such a frightening future!

Oops!

Cue Twilight Zone theme...

Written by DC writer/editor George Kashdan (who co-created Tommy Tomorrow) and illustrated by the multi-talented Dick Giordano, this never-reprinted tale from DC's Time Warp #1 (1979) reads like it was scripted a decade earlier in the late 1960s, especially in the teen-agers' dialogue ("Like it was chain-reacted into doomsville!")!

Reading Room UNEXPECTED "Choice"

When DC's oversized 1979-80 sci-fi anthology Time Warp folded, the remaining stories...

...were published in the fantasy/horror anthology The Unexpected!

This never-reprinted tale of questionable "justice" from DC's The Unexpected #210, (1981) was written by George Kashdan and illustrated by "Vicatan" (Vic Catan, Jr).
It was typical of the output by long-time pro Kashdan, solid, but not really memorable.

The art by Vicatan raises it a notch with unusually-effective storytelling and clean linework.

Showcase presents Tales of the Unexpected

Vol 1

Reading Room / Halloween Horror UNEXPECTED "Monstrous Crime"

As DC Comics ended it's non-super-hero anthologies...

...sometimes unused stories for one title were used as filler in other books!

Originally-produced for the sci-fi anthology Time Warp, this never-reprinted story ended up in the back of issue #207 (1981) of the DC horror anthology The Unexpected.
Tor Infante (aka Nestor Infante/Ernesto Infante) illustrated only 11 war and horror stories in the early 1980s, all for DC, before disappearing from the American comics scene until the 1990s, when he took on multiple assignments for Continuity Comics including Ms Mystic and Megalith, as well as KnightHawk, which found a new home at Acclaim Comics after Continuity folded.
Infante passed away in 2011.
