Space Heroine Saturdays TARA "Satellite of the Moon Spiders!"

Tara's home, Wonder Comics, had been cancelled...

...but there was still one graphic tale of fighting interplanetary injustice to be told!

Our Space Heroine's final comic story appeared in Standard's Thrilling Comics #71 (1949), illustrated by her co-creator Gene Fawcette.

But, this isn't her last appearance in Space Heroine Saturdays!
What does that mean?
You'll find out next month!

Space Heroine Saturdays TARA "Death that Grew!"

You think COVID-19 was bad?

How about a disease created as a biological weapon, as in this never-reprinted tale illustrated by Gene Fawcette?

The writer for this never-reprinted tale from Nedor's Wonder Comics #20 (1948) is (as usual) unknown.

This was the final issue of Wonder Comics...but not then end of the adventures of the Queen of the Space Pirates!

Tara will return with a final tale from another Nedor comic as well as several illustrated text features we haven't run yet, and a cover art gallery!

Space Heroine Saturdays TARA "Secret Bride of Bharbon!"

Risking her life to protect the innocent...

...Tara (along with her pair of somewhat-merry men) continues her quest through deep space!

While the writer's credit is unknown, the art for this never-reprinted tale from Nedor's Wonder Comics #19 (1948) is by Gene Fawcette.

Space Heroine Saturdays TARA "Key of the Cuchin Van!"

We continue the space-spanning saga of Tara, Queen of the Space Pirates 

...with this tale from Nedor's Wonder Comics #18 (1948).

The Grand Comics DataBase lists Gene Fawcette, who did the previous stories, as the penciler/inker, but it looks like fellow Wonder Comics artist George Roussos, who used a more standardized layout and looser inking style.

Space Heroine Saturdays TARA "Eight Hands of Tenslith!"

Prowling the spaceways, robbing from the rich to give to the poor...

We continue the space-spanning saga of the Queen of the Space Pirates with this tale from Nedor's Wonder Comics #17.

Art was, again, by Gene Fawcette, one of the better illustrators of the period, who usually penciled and inked his sci-fi, horror, and good-girl material (or strips that combined them like Tara) for Fiction House, Avon, and Better.

BTW, the cover for this issue features characters from the Tara story that appeared in Wonder Comics #16. 
You can see the cover, along with her second appearance HERE.
