The Saturnian wore the Martian ambassador's skin?
Now that's gonna screw up interplanetary diplomatic relations!

Friday Fun / CoronaVirus Comics MAD "Failing Health Magazine"

Now that Halloween is over, we return to making fun of a real-life horror...
...by showing those who over-react to the slightest medical problem (and some that don't really exist) in a never-reprinted feature from EC's MAD Magazine #159 (1973)!
Scripted by Tom Koch and illustrated by the legendary Jack Davis, this was the sort of spoof MAD did better than anybody else in the humor mag business!

Holiday Reading Room SANTA CLAUS FUNNIES "Carolers"

Walt (Pogo) Kelly doesn't need captions or word balloons...
...to tell his story in this never-reprinted one-pager from Dell's Four Color Comics #91 (1945).
It's just red and black because it's on the inside back cover of the comic, which was printed with only two colors, instead of the usual four (CMYK) colors to save money.
And, if you're wondering why we're running Christmas-related material so early this year...why not?

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder LOST WORLD "California Scheming"

We Have Already Seen...

...and part of Grauman's Chinese Theatre and sidewalk in front survive centuries from now?
Talk about building things to last!
And it was a "temple of popular culture...

The Weirdness Continues...
Next Wednesday!
Writer "Thorncliffe Herrick" and artist Graham Ingels apparently think the athletic blond, blue eyed Californians of the 1940s will deteriorate into these sorry specimens thousands of years from now in Fiction House's Planet Comics #29 (1943)!
