Roosevelt Reading Room WORLD AROUND US "The Nation Asks for Action"

Our last entry in the Roosevelt Reading Room is another take on the life of FDR...

...from the same issue of World Around Us the "Rough Rider" story came from.

Compare and contrast this version by George Evans and Gray Morrow with the previous FDR tale by John Buscema.

Note what facts both stories present, and which ones each version omits.

We hope you've enjoyed our attempt to supplement the amazing Ken Burns PBS documentary The Roosevelts.

Reading Room: GULLIVAR JONES "Two Worlds to Win!"

The John Carter movie opens this week (March 9th)...

Meanwhile, we're continuing the adventures of his swashbuckling predecessor on Mars, Gullivar Jones, as we present, from Creatures on the Loose #21 (1973), the sixth (and final) chapter of the short-lived, never-reprinted, comic adaptation...

People did write, and though Gullivar Jones' four-color adventures were at an end, he returned with new graphic adventures in a Marvel title only a year later!
But that's a story for another time...

Reading Room: GULLIVAR JONES "What Price Victory?"

The John Carter movie is only a week away (March 9th)...

Art by Gil Kane

Meanwhile, we're continuing the adventures of his swashbuckling predecessor on Mars, Gullivar Jones, as we present, from Creatures on the Loose #20 (1972), the fifth chapter of the short-lived, never-reprinted, comic adaptation...

Has Gullivar been reunited with Heru only to die on the red Martian sands?

(Remember, there was only one Gullivar Jones book!

No sequel!)

When next we meet up with Gullivar...it's the fearsome finale of this story!

Note: Gray Morrow steps up to assume the art chores (pencils and inks) for the final two issues of Gullivar's Creatures on the Loose run.
