Holiday Reading Room: SNOW QUEEN "About the Mirror and Its Pieces" and "A Little Boy and a Little Girl"

With the sequel film to Frozen opening tonite...

...we're re-presenting the classic (and extremely-different fairy tale the flick is based upon!
In fact, it's probably the most-altered of all the Disney flicks based upon old-time fairy tales!

Next Thursday:

The Flower Garden of the Woman Who Knew Magic

Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Lea Bing, this never-reprinted tale from Dell's Fairy Tale Parade #9 (1943) is the only comic book adaptation of the Hand Christian Andersen fairy tale!
(The currently-available graphic novel is an adaptation of the movie, not the original story.)

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder SEEKER 3000 "HumanKind" Part 1

We Have Already Seen...

...I love these synopsis pages!
They present both the series' concept and the action from the previous issue!

As numerous episodes of various Star Trek series and this never-reprinted chapter from Marvel's Seeker 3000 #3 (1998) show, seizing a human starship is one thing.
Keeping it when facing a motivated crew is quite another matter!

As you might have guessed...

To Be Continued

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: the Secret Saga!

You only think you know the story...

...but the truth is far different!

Yeah, you know the 1940s song and you've seen the 1960s animated TV special every Christmas for as long as you can remember.

But, it's not the original tale of the guy with the glowing nose!

Starting next Tuesday , we're re-presenting a special treat...the rarely-seen prose tale that inspired both the song and stop-motion tv special.

Here's a vintage 1940s cartoon by Max Fleischer that's somewhat closer to the "classic" version...

And be here next Tuesday for the actual illustrated prose tale!

The girl from Kansas is told that she must visit the Wizard who lives in the Emerald City, for he is the only one with the power to return her home!

Following the Yellow Brick Road (which goes directly to the green metropolis), she encounters three strange (but friendly) beings who agree to accompany her...

Next Monday:

the Wicked Witch of the West!

Ah, the Silver Age of Comics!
When situations like the one portrayed above were the norm, rather than the exception.
From Hot Wheels #6 (1970), the last issue of the first comic based on a TV series based on a toy line.
Ironically, it was the Christmas issue...

Long before He-Man, Micronauts, GI Joe and Transformers presented toys as animated action heroes, Hanna-Barbera's Hot Wheels animated series (based on the highly-successful Mattel toys) featured a politically-correct team of teens battling evil while engaging in auto races in nifty cars (with their seat belts firmly buckled, of course)!
Yes, it sounds like Scooby Doo without the annoying talking dog...
