Golden Age Comic LogoWear

We at Atomic Kommie Comics™ are big fans of logos.
You know, the distinctive title lettering for a book or character.

Visually, it's the main element that distinguishes one book from another, especially when they're "racked" in a traditional magazine rack so only the top 1/3rd of the cover is visible.

And nowhere were logos more distinctive than during The Golden Age of Comics.
So, it's with pardonable pride that we present a line of kool kollectibles featuring the best of classic comic book logos in our line of logowear!

We've included some of the niftiest lettering ever to grace t-shirts, messenger bags, mugs and other goodies including Amazing-Man Comics, The Black Terror, The Blue Beetle, Captain Future, Captain MidNight, Captain Science, Captain Video, Cat-Man Comics, DareDevil, Doc Strange, The Face, Fighting Yank, The Flame, The Green Hornet, Green Lama, Monster of Frankenstein, The Owl, Phantom Lady, Samson, and SkyMan!
We're also featuring our own retro-themed Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics™ logo in it's own line of logowear!
There'll be more to come, so check us often!

Things to come...Icons of the Golden Age of Comics!

With the success of the Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics™ line, we're expanding into a somewhat more "mass-market" approach with a new line of Golden-Age related items.
Titled Icons of the Golden Age of Comics™ line, the idea of this series is to take a single defining image for each character, silhouette it, and put it, sans lettering (except for story title lettering as seen in the DareDevil vs Claw shirt above) on collectibles.
Even if a potential customer doesn't know who the Golden Age character is, the exciting imagery (like those shown above and below) should be enough to sell it as a kool kollectible!
The line will debut on July 1st, but we're giving you, our loyal fans, a preview a couple of the designs now.
PLUS: on June 22nd, we'll post a link ONLY HERE on this blog to the new line's storefront to enable those who click on it to buy ANYTHING on the Icon line at discount until July 1st!
(The Storefront WON'T be accessible or searchable to the general public until July 1st!)
It's Atomic Kommie Comics™ way of saying "Thank you" to our loyal fans!

The Coming of...CALENDARS!

Among our most popular items are 12-month calendars.
(Y'know, the ones with different illustrations for each month.)
Last year we almost doubled the selection of subjects, and you pop culture aficionados responded by gobbling them up like there was no tomorrow (pun intended)!

No fools we, if the demand is there, supply it we will!

Vote FOR Terror--The Black Terror, that is! ;-)

Anyone can vote for Hillary or Barack.
But only you can rock the vote for the one-and-only Black Terror!
He knows what has to be done to those guys in Washington, and you know he'll do it!
Show you don't take no s#1t from anyone!
Proudly wear the Atomic Kommie Comics candidate who will clean up politics (and leave a bloody trail in the process)!
He's as relevant now as in the 1940s, where this classic cover first appeared during the Golden Age of Comics.
Go to Black Terror & Tim and cast your vote with the one thing that really counts...your wallet!
While you're there, you might want to visit the other Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics.
(And don't forget to see his current adventures in Alex Ross' Project SuperPowers, on sale now at comics shops everywhere! BUY IT!)

NEW: "Lost" Heroes of the Golden Age LogoWear!

Along with classic covers from the Golden Age of Comics, Atomic Kommie Comics is now offering (due to a number of requests) the logos that adorned the comics as stand-alone images on our collectibles in our Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics line.
If you go to LogoWear you'll see the current batch of goodies including The Black Terror, The Fighting Yank, The Green Lama, Amazing-Man, and The Face. Anthology titles like Exciting Comics, Startling Comics, Keen Detective Funnies, etal, will also be coming shortly, along with many more heroes like The Flame, The Owl, Frankenstein, etc.

Note: these are not the new, trademarked logos for the Project SuperPowers versions of the public domain characters, but the original logos from the 1940s-50s! Personally, we hope Dynamite will do some tie in products with art by Ross, Sadowski, etc. (I'll be one of the first in line to buy them when they do! Hell, you should see the amount of Alex Ross stuff I have in my collection!) ;-)
BUY Project SuperPowers #0 (out now), and if you're looking for some kool kollectibles featuring the classic heroes, stop by here!

Heroes of the Golden Age Return...

I'm ecstatic to finally see Alex Ross' Project SuperPowers!
It's everything I hoped in a Golden Age revival; respectful to the original material, but willing to tread new ground. Beautiful covers, nice inside art (though I hear the artist will, unfortunately, be leaving soon.), clever writing.
Two words: BUY IT!

And, if after reading Project SuperPowers #0 (Available now! BUY IT!), you have a craving for kool kollectibles based on the ORIGINAL 1940s versions of the characters, pop over to Atomic Kommie Comics: Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics where their classic cover art has been digitally-restored and remastered onto goodies ranging from messenger bags to t-shirts to mousepads to blank sketchbooks to Lord-Knows-What-Else. It's NOT Alex Ross, but it IS some of the best comics art ever from greats like Mac Raboy, Lou Fine, Reed Crandall, and Alex Schomburg, among others! Plus: multiple cover images for a number of characters including Black Terror, Fighting Yank, The Face (Mr. Face), Miss Masque (Masquerade), Samson, The Flame, Green Lama, The Owl,and Frankenstein (F-Troop)

One more time: BUY PROJECT SUPERPOWERS!
