Reading Room STRANGE TALES "Beware the Uboongi!"

Let Us Gaze At Uranus...

...sorry, I can't resist occasionally reverting to 10-year old sense of humor when presenting a comic story, in this case from Marvel's Strange Tales #100 (1962).

OOPS!

Silly us, not warning the Russkies about which animals were dangerous...

Illustrated by Don Heck, the plotter and scripter are likely the book's editor, Stan Lee (plot) and his brother, Larry Lieber (script).
Note: Stan Lee's birth name is Stanley Lieber.
He used "Stan Lee" on his comics work because he hoped (as most writers do) to script the Great American Novel and wanted the Lieber name on that.
He eventually legally-changed his name to Stan Lee.

Friday Fun RICHIE RICH "Military Mix-Up"

The Dreaded Deadline Doom caught us this week...

...so enjoy this carry-over from our brother RetroBlog, Hero Histories, featuring The Poor Little Rich Boy kicking Russkie butt in this tale from Harvey's Richie Rich #51 (1966)!

Whatta guy!

And he didn't even have to become Super-Richie/Rippy...

...to do it!

(If you think there's a lot of Spider-Man or Batman titles out now...and there are quite a few...it's nothing compared to Richie Rich at his peak, when there were...take a deep breath...

32 simultaneous monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly Richie Rich Universe titles!
And that's not including Casper, Sad Sack, and all the other non-Richie Rich Harvey titles! 

You read that right, True Believer!
By the way, they were all selling better than almost everything Marvel and DC has out there now!

Space Hero Saturdays BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25th CENTURY "Adventure of the Flying Discs!"

Yes, the 20th Century Guy Who Survived to the 25th Century returns to the 20th Century...

...(1950, to be exact) to take on Commies of various ethnicities, explains what flying saucers arnd and who's piloting them (It ain't little green men)!

Cover by Murphy Anderson and an unknown inker

This never-reprinted tale illustrated by Ray Chatton, from Toby Press' Buck Rogers in the 25th Century #100 (1950) was done specifically for the comic, unlike Buck's previous comic book appearances, which were newspaper strip reprints.
(BTW, though the book is "#100", it's actually the first issue from this publisher!)
"Korosa" is, obviously, Korea, where the Korean War broke out on June 25, 1950.
It's interesting to note that, in the 25th Century, peace reigns on Earth and there are rocket bases and other international facilities in Korosa/Korea!
Plus, the unknown writer apparently wasn't exactly conversant in the concept of time travel...which, even at this stage in science fiction literature, pretty much stated that interference in the "past" usually-resulted in catastrophic rewriting of history in the "future/present" as shown in stories like "A Sound of Thunder" by Ray Bradbury!
