"...an apartment in New York...wild life she's been leading..."
Well, the Christmas shopping season is more-or-less underway (Remember when it didn't begin until after Thanksgiving?), so we at Atomic Kommie Comics™ are going to offer you a daily guide to reasonably-priced pop culture collectibles that would make great gifts for the hard-to-please person in your life!
First off is a kool, retro, 1950s comic cover image from our Seducton of the Innocent™ section.
Quick side note: Seduction of the Innocent was a book written in the 1950s by Dr. Fredric Wertham, a psychiatrist who postulated that, because juvenile delinquents read comic books, comics caused juvenile delinquency! (Psychiatrists today claim the same thing about video games, in the '80s & '90s about horror movies, in the '60s & '70s about tv shows, etc.) So our collection's title is tongue-in-cheek and somewhat snarky, not prurient! As we put it..."Proudly show the stuff your grandparents didn't want your parents to see!"
This particular image is a cutting commentary on the belief that New York City is a den of sin, a modern Sodom (if not Gomorrah), and that only MidWestern small-town values are the RIGHT values!
It's available on a variety of items including mugs, messenger bags, t-shirts, tops, and other goodies along with eleven other comics covers and almost TWO DOZEN naughty movie posters!
So, let's put the "X" back in Xmas! ;-)
Shop now!
Avoid the Christmas rush!
It's good to be BAD at Christmastime!

Thank you for making this a Horribly-Happy Halloween!
We at Atomic Kommie Comics™ wanted to say 'thank you" to all who ordered our ghoulish goodies and creepy customizable collectibles!
It's nice to see so many like-minded ghouls and creatures out there! ;-)
With the second-scariest day, Election Day, less than a week later, we'd like to recommend a couple of satellite stores for your consideration...
"Pay My F@#$ing Mortgage!" which shows how only selling the Honus Wagner T-206 card will enable you to keep a roof over your head during the housing / banking meltdown...
and
"Fill My F@#$ing Gas Tank!" which follows the same theme, but with ridiculously-fluctuating gasoline prices!
Now, THOSE are scary!
Happy Halloween, everyone, and GET OUT AND VOTE!

What's MORE scary than Halloween? The Economy!
Never missing an opportunity to express our outrage at the world, we have adapted our previous "...fill my f@#%ing gas tank!" graphic to reflect the housing/mortgage meltdown, showing that it takes selling the world's most expensive baseball card (Honus Wagner T-206) just to keep a roof over your head!
Now, it's "...pay my f@#%ing mortgage!"
If you share my depression/outrage/fear over the economy, voice your opinion with a bumper sticker, shirt, tote bag, or other goodie!
