Reading Room PHASE 1 "Rocket Jets Thundering..."

It's a never-reprinted single-page...

...from an incredibly-HTF one-shot early 1970s fanzine!

But WHAT a page!

A solo piece by the legendary Murphy Anderson at his Silver/Bronze Age prime!

Is this illo from SQ's Phase 1 (1971) a beautiful example of pulp-style sci-fi or what?
BTW, note the elegant way Murphy solves the problem of the jet-pack NOT burning the wearer's butt...by using flanges/pylons to keep the engines attached to the back, but not on it!

Phase 1

The SEQUEL to the Swinging Seventies Black Super-Hero You NEVER Heard of...ACE OF SPADES II!

In 1971, two years before The Black Panther received his own series...

...a Black Super-Hero hit the newsstands of America for a two-issue run almost nobody remembers!

Who is he?

Where did he come from?

And why don't even the most obsessive comics fans remember him?

These, and other equally-valid questions are now answered at...

Not Safe for Work Comics!

Friday Fun JETTA OF THE 21st CENTURY "Zoomer: Frat Race"

Jetta in the 21st Century told tales about other characters in the same future setting...

...creating a more extensive "universe" than you might have realized!

Though based on Dan DeCarlo's designs, the art on this never-reprinted story from Standard's Jetta of the 21st Century #5 (1952) about other students who weren't part of Jetta's entourage is by Fred Eng.

Reading Room PHANTASMAGORIA "Sinking Feeling"

One of the most unique talents to ever grace the comics field...

...Kenneth Smith's work is hard to find, but well-worth tracking down, as this story he wrote and illustrated proves!

This tale from Smith's self-published Phantasmagoria #2 (1972) is a pretty good example of both his scripting and illustrating, both of which are multi-layered and require several readings to grasp all the details.

Kenneth Smith's about as close to an actual Renaissance Man as has ever contributed to the comics field!

His best-known work was the self-published anthology Phantasmagoria, whose every aspect, including printing, was under his total control! 

Fantagraphics was so impressed they offered not only to publish a continuation of it (available below), they gave him an open forum for his writing, as shown HERE!

Trump Reading Room TRUE COMICS "There Are NO Master Races"

Sometimes Don the Con's sheepie have to be reminded of basic biological facts...

...and what better way than with pictures?

Appearing in Parents Magazine Press' True Comics #39 (1944), this short piece took anthropological scientific data (from the brochure shown below) and presented it in an easily-digestible form, which even today's Trumpettes could understand...I hope!
