Frankenstein Friday Fun : ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "Scared Silly" Part 3

We Have Already Seen...

...Jerry Lewis had rented a supposedly-haunted house for $12 a month.

It was "haunted"...by former horror movie stars Boris Killoff (Krankenstein), Bela Le Ghouli (Drinkula), and Peter Leery (Dog Boy), who were preparing for a return to the silver screen!

The trio had invited a noted film director to visit, hoping to impress him with their ability to still scare potential moviegoers!

But there's been a complication, as Bela Le Ghouli explains...

Don't ya just love a happy ending?

As a bonus, here's a feature from this issue about artist Bob Oksner, whom I've felt has been under-appreciated by today's fans...

Next Friday, another firghteningly-funny story when the wind blows cold and the moon shines bright.

Frankenstein Friday Fun : ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "Scared Silly" Part 2

When Last We Left France's Favorite Comedian (2 years ago)...

...he had rented a supposedly-haunted house for $12 a month.

It was "haunted"...by former horror movie stars Boris Killoff (Krankenstein), Bela Le Ghouli (Drinkula), and Peter Leery (Dog Boy), who were preparing for a return to the silver screen!

Explanation: We began this re-presentation of this never-reprinted tale in 2021 as shown HERE.
However, by the time next week rolled around, we ran a different Frankenstein tale, and never got around to running the other two chapters!
So here's Part 2, with Part 3 to follow next week!
Now, back to the story...

Who will trap whom?

See the inane answer...NEXT FRIDAY!

With the Comics Code limiting use of the classic monsters to humorous or decidedly non-threatening versions, DC decided work within those limits.

Jerry would go on to meet versions of the Mummy, Invisible Man, Creature from the Black Lagoon and other film and print fiction monsters.

And, fellow DC Comics comedian Bob Hope would end up with ongoing appearances by dopplegangers of Frankie (Coach Franklin Stein), Drac (Dr. Van Pyre), and Wolfy (Professor Von Wolfman) as the faculty of Benedict Arnold High School, which Hope's nephew attends!

That those other characters looked exactly like the trio of monsters in this story is attributable to the fact they share the same artist, Bob Oksner!

Friday Fun ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "Scared Silly!" Part 1

We're leading into October with a monstrous two-part tale (in more ways than one)...

...as a renamed Frankenstein and friends meet...Jerry Lewis???

To Be Continued...NEXT FRIDAY!

This rather weird tale from DC's Adventures of Jerry Lewis #83 (1964), written by Arnold Drake and illustrated by Bob Oksner, was typical of the sort of stories that appeared in the comics DC published based on real-life entertainment personalities.

Though all but non-existent now, from the 1940s until the 1970s, almost every company published a couple of them!

Most were based on adventure/action actors like John Wayne, Buster Crabbe, or Roy Rogers, usually with an Old West theme.
But DC's longest-running ones were based on Jerry Lewis (124 issues plus a Super DC Giant from 1952 to 1971) and Bob Hope (109 issues from 1950 to 1969), both of which leaned heavily on fantasy/sci-fi plotlines and haven't been reprinted since that aforementioned Super DC Giant a half century sgo!
Note: outside of Universal monster movie re-runs on TV, the place kids most frequently saw Frankenstein and his pals in the 1960s were in comic books like  the Lewis and Hope comics (where they became ongoing characters), Archie's MadHouse, and the short-lived campy Dell Comics superhero versions of Dracula, Frankenstein, and WolfMan (renamed "WereWolf")!
While the Comics Code Authority. didn't allow "serious" versions of the characters, they apparently had no problem with humorous versions...or versions clearly-shown to be aliens or androids/robots!
That changed when the Code was modified in 1971 to allow the "classic" versions to once more appear in four-color comics.

Trump Reading Room TALES CALCULATED TO DRIVE YOU BATS "Monster Crisis"

It's fascinating how this story from 1962 can relate to present-day America...

...as the Idiot in the White House creates similar economic problems in real-life!

George Gladir wrote and Orlando Busino illustrated this tale from Archie's Tales Calculated to Drive You BATS V1N2 (1962) in an era when excessive tariffs and other such protectionist claptrap had been minimized after learning the hard way they didn't work!
Unfortunately, it seems we're destined to learn that lesson again...the hard way!
