YouTube Wednesday: Mothra Madness!

I recently caught the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy on Action...
...and, boy, did it BLOW!
I ran, screaming, back to my Classic Media DVD set for some REAL Mothra action with real Mothra fairies...
First, the original teaser trailer with ONLY preproduction art plus the first trailer with the Peanuts (btw, the trailer narrator was also the narrator and the Robot on Lost in Space, Dick Tufeld)...

 (also the original kool Japanese trailer...)

From Ghidorah: the Three-Headed Monster...the Peanuts return...

From Godzilla vs Mothra (1992)...the Cosmos...

...and noted horror host Svengoolie does a "Where Are They Now?" segment...

Now THAT'S MOTHRA!

Reading Room: "EarthMan"

"What if Superman had been an Earthman marooned on another world..."
Click on the art to enlarge and read...
...and what if he lost his memory?"
On a koolness scale from 1-10, this tale rates an "11".
Unfortunately, there was never a sequel to this tale from Unearthly Spectaculars #2, so we'll never know if EarthMan got his memory back or not!
Written, penciled, and inked by Wally Wood, who apparently had some interesting variations on the theme planned, but never had the opportunity to carry them out.
