JACKIE ROBINSON "Baseball Hero" Conclusion

Despite enduring pressure and situations that would've caused a lesser man to falter and give up, Jackie Robinson not only endures, but prospers!
His undeniable talent and skills begin to win over foes on and off the baseball diamond and an even greater joy awaits him at home...
Bonus: An ad from the comic promoting Jackie Robinson licensed products...
Imagine the reaction of racists who saw white kids wearing those items!
Written by Charles Dexter, and illustrated by an unknown artist (whom I suspect was Wayne [Superman] Boring), this book-length tale from Fawcett's Jackie Robinson (1949) detailed his life and career up to mid-1949, so it doesn't cover the even greater achievements yet to come...
Intended as a one-shot, it sold so well that it went to a bi-monthly series the next summer!
We're finishing the interrupted serialization this week in tribute to the legendary baseball player's 100th birthday!

JACKIE ROBINSON "Baseball Hero" Part 3

Having proven himself one of the top players in the minor leagues, Jackie Robinson is called up to begin the 1947 season at Ebbets Field for the Brooklyn Dodgers!
Be Here Thursday When Jackie Welcomes an Addition to the Family and Hits (Literally) New Professional Highs!
Written by Charles Dexter, and illustrated by an unknown artist (whom I suspect was Wayne [Superman] Boring), this book-length tale from Fawcett's Jackie Robinson (1949) detailed his life and career up to mid-1949.

Monday Madness ALICE "Super-Dooper Special"

We last saw the Tweedle Twins in their own strip...
...but this time around, they're guest-starring in Alice's feature!
Is Alice imagining she encountered the Tweedle Twins in this never-reprinted tale from Ziff-Davis' Alice #11 (1951)?
Since the duo had their own adventure in the previous issue without her (as shown HERE), I'd say that theory is blown away!
It's more likely she has an innate ability to travel to the parallel dimension where they, and slightly-wonky versions of other imaginary characters, including (but not limited to) Lewis Carroll's Wonderland characters, exist!

The Mini-Blogathons Return...

Starting next week, our annual Mini-Blogathons will be back...
We had so much D-Day material available, that we've decided to use some of it for the blogathons, beginning with Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos hitting the beach on D-Day!
Yes, it was reprinted in a Marvel Masterworks a decade ago, but those are extremely-expensive and didn't sell very well, so most of you have never seen this tale from 53 years ago!
We're giving equal time to Fury's counterpart, Sgt. Rock, presenting his never-reprinted D-Day adventure!
Both of these sagas will appear at (where else) War: Past, Present & Future!
It was really crowded at Normandy on June 6th, 1944 since Blackhawk and his team were also there, so it's only fair we present their never-reprinted D-Day adventure...which also doubles as their never-revealed origin...at Hero Histories!
Since we're phasing back in to regular blogging after the harrowing events of the past few months, we're limiting the Blogathons, which, while fun, tend to be exhausting to produce!
Starting Monday, we'll be back to daily posts here at Atomic Kommie Comics, continuing the ongoing features where we left off!
In addition, True Love Comics Tales will return to weekly posting on Wednesday, beginning with our usual Summertime "beach read", a book-length Gothic novel!
