Monday Madness / CoronaVirus Comics PANDEMICA "Chapter One: Get Down with the Sickness" Part 1
Combine Covid-19 with the X-Files and Mission: Impossible...
...and you get this (prophetic?) series produced last year!
Remember, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean you don't have enemies...
This opener from IDW's almost-prescient Pandemica #1 (2019), by novelist Jonathan Mayberry and illustrator Alex Sanchez begins the set-up the rest of that first issue (of five) completes!
You'll see the rest of #1 next week...

CoronaVirus Comics ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN "Higher Power!"
On the Christian sabbath we ask "when science fails, can faith find a way"?
Perhaps this short. from ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #91 (1957) holds the answer!
Did writer/editor Richard E Hughes and artist Ogden Whitney base this tale on an oft-heard urban legend?
Oddly, when the story was reprinted in ACG's Unknown Worlds #18 (1962), it was retitled...
...and nobody can recall why!

Friday Fun / CoronaVirus Comics MYSTERY MEN COMICS "Rex Dexter and the Radium Creatures of Capris"
Even in the " far future" of the year 2000 (as seen from 1939)...
..., plagues can affect the inhabitants of Earth!
And only a stalwart, heroic, usually lantern-jawed space hero could save us...

Ah, radiation!
Was there nothing it couldn't cure back then?
The use of Earth-based magnetism to propel and recover un-powered spacecraft is a rather unique touch that writer/artist Dick Briefer seems to have come up with on the spur of the moment.
BTW, we've re-presented the entire Rex Dexter series on this blog, and you can read every one of his startling space-bound sagas by clicking HERE!
