Reading Room: BRANT CRAIG "Case of the Racing Grellama"

Some things never change...

...including cliched mysteries featuring private eyes, whether set in the 1930s/40s or the far future...

This never-reprinted "hard-boiled dick in space" story from Youthful's Fantastic #8 (1951) was probably illustrated by Bill Molno.

The writer is unknown.
BTW, Fantastic's first issue was #8.
The book is actually Captain Science retitled!
This is the final published tale of Brant Craig, but it's not the last one you'll see here!
There's one more, horror-themed, story we're saving for Halloween week.
Don't miss it!

...coming out, there's really only one thing left, an annoucement about a long-awaited DVD release, either as season boxes or a complete series set!

(And a simultaneous release of it's "brother" tv series...

...The Green Hornet, would be the icing on the cake!)

Return of Fantastic Femme Aisha Tyler!

A truly Fantastic Femme, Aisha Tyler, has a busy week...

...with the debut of the revival of Whose Line is It Anyway? and several appearances at the San Diego ComicCon plugging Archer, XIII and her new book, Self-Inflicted Wounds!

(Like a needed an excuse to run these pix?)

A private screening on Thursday was packed, but a show at Imax on Friday afternoon was only 1/4 full!

"Not Guilty" Doesn't Mean "Innocent"

You'll have to forgive me, but after the startling (but not unexpected) verdict in the George Zimmerman trial, I'm in no mood to post...
