Wednesday Worlds of Wonder LOST WORLD "Secret Weapon Cache"

Still on the wrong side of the Atlantic Ocean...

...Hunt Bowman and alien princess Lyssa seek a way to return to America to continue the fight against the VoltaMen...invading aliens from a distant world!

Wait!

They're not taking any of the tech with them?

Though Graham Ingels does retouch work on some of the faces, the art chores as of Fiction House's Planet Comics #3 (1944) fall to up-and-comer Lily Renee, perhaps the most successful of the various women who took over the creative end of comics while the guys were off to war.

Lily was, herself, a Jewish escapee from Europe when the Holocaust began.

Amazingly-versatile, she handled everything from sci-fi to spies to horror to romance with equal finesse!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder LOST WORLD "London Blitz 2.0"

We Have Already Seen...

...Hunt and Lyssa, having been accidentally-transported via Volta spacecraft from St Louis to Paris, must now find their way back to America, but without alien technology to help them...

Fiction House's Planet Comics #31 (1944) continues the trek across a devastated Europe...which, ironically mirrors the then-current situation known to us as World War II!

But even bigger changes are coming to the Lost World, as you'll see next week!

Note: While some spacecraft and submarines look similar, they're actually designed to operate in totally-different envrionments!

Spaceships fly though a near-vacuum, and low gravity so they're built to keep their interiors from exploding outward!

OTOH, subs are designed to keep incredibly-heavy water pressure from crushing them like tin cans.
Unless you can figure out how to make the vessel's structure do both effectively, a combo-use ship isn't really feasible...

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder LOST WORLD "City of Lost Souls"

When Last We Left the Apocalyptic Archer and Alien Princess...

...WOW, The Lost World finally made the cover of Planet Comics!

But cover artist Joe Doolin didn't get many of the details right (like costume details and coloring), he did include a wrecked Eiffel Tower, since most of the story takes place in a devasted Paris, France!

And it is a real attention-grabber!

Well, that'll teach Hunt Bowman not to steal other people's stuff, eh?
Fiction House's Planet Comics #30 (1944) begins a new ongoing plotline about an odyssey to return to what remains of America!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder LOST WORLD "California Scheming"

We Have Already Seen...

...and part of Grauman's Chinese Theatre and sidewalk in front survive centuries from now?

Talk about building things to last!
And it was a "temple of popular culture...

The Weirdness Continues...

Next Wednesday!

Writer "Thorncliffe Herrick" and artist Graham Ingels apparently think the athletic blond, blue eyed Californians of the 1940s will deteriorate into these sorry specimens thousands of years from now in Fiction House's Planet Comics #29 (1943)!

Next Wednesday!

Writer "Thorncliffe Herrick" and artist Graham Ingels don't identify where this story takes place during this tale from Fiction House's Planet Comics #28 (1943), so we don't know what direction they're going!
They could be in Canada or Mexico for all we know...
