Fantastic Femmes--Vanessa Hudgens

Note: this page has been updated with NEW info HERE!
Is there anyone under the age of 25 who doesn't know Vanessa Anne Hudgens as Gabriella Montez from the High School Musical trilogy?
While she is best-known as an ingenue and singer with a couple of gold albums, with her credible acting ability (check out Thirteen), the willingness to do non-dangerous stuntwork (as seen in Thunderbirds), and her love of genre films, Vanessa's standing as a Fantastic Femme is assured!
Trivia:
Offered a role in the remake of horror film Prom Night, but turned it down.
Her singing training is in opera!
Both her maternal and paternal grandparents were professional musicians in the 1930s-50s!
Genre appearances include...
Beastly (Linda Owens)
Thunderbirds [2004] (Tin-Tin Kyrano)
Robbery Homicide Division "Had"

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)!

Plus, there were several subjects that you requested we do calendars about!
No fools we, if the demand is there, supply it we will!

So, for 2010, ATC is unleashing the following ALL-NEW calendars...
Basil Rathbone IS Sherlock Holmes!™
(replacing Sherlock Holmes: the Greatest Sleuth of All!™ which will return, revised, in 2011!)
Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics™ Team-Ups
(classic covers featuring two or more characters together who already had their own strips or titles!)
Classic The Owl
Classic Monster of Frankenstein
Classic The Flame
Classic Doc Strange
Classic DareDevil
Classic Captain Future
(featuring all three versions--original pulp hero and both comic incarnations!)
Classic Cat-Man
Classic Blue Beetle
Classic Amazing-Man
Captain MidNight™
Phantom Lady™
Mr District Attorney™
(replacing Crime & Punishment™)
Captains of the Comics!™
(replacing Captains of the Cosmos™)
Jungle Girls™
Masked Western Heroes™
Aviators of the Golden Age of Comics™
(replacing War: Past, Present & Future™)
Along with heavily-revised versions of these previous best sellers...

Lotsa Logos (comic book logos, that is)

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 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, Captain Future, Cat-Man Comics, DareDevil, The Face, Fighting Yank, Green Lama, and The 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 out as often as you can!
