Space Force Saturdays SPEED CARTER: SPACEMAN "and the Pirate Planet!"

 The 1950s, when heroic astronauts fought for Truth, Justice, and the American Way in outer space...

...as seen in this premiere tale from Speed Carter: SpaceMan #1 (1953), the series' premiere issue!
Written by Hank Chapman, illustrated by Joe Maneely.
Maneely was Stan Lee's go-to artist during the early 1950s with the ability to handle any and every genre with equal speed and versatility.
Unfortunately, he was killed in a commuter train accident in mid-1958 at the age of 32.
Had he lived, Joe would probably have been one of the creative mainstays, along with Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, and Don Heck in Marvel Comics' ascendancy in the Silver Age.
Speed Carter: Spaceman was Atlas Comics' second try at an ongoing space opera series when a short-lived Space Squadron comic bit the dust after six issues!
You'll see that series' premiere here next week!
Speed fared no better, logging a half-dozen editions before disappearing into the infinite, but we'll be presenting his never-reprinted tales right here!

Friday Fun / Trump Reading Room LOOIE LAZYBONES "Bride fer Kissing Tim!"

Let's look in on the role model of Don da Con's deplorables...

...(except for his honesty, integrity, and chivalry) in this never-reprinted tale from Nedor's Thrilling Comics #71 (1949).
Created in 1943, Looie Lazybones floated around the Nedor Comics line as a "filler" strip until settling down in Thrilling Comics as of #56 (1946).

Young up-and-comer Frank Frazetta took over the art in #67 (1948) bringing it amazingly-close to the visual style of the strip's "inspiration", Al Capp's Li'l Abner, which had already become a media sensation, with a radio show, feature film, and tons of merchandising (including a solo comic about Abner, an anthology about Dogpatch, a title dedicated to Wolf Girl, and a book about the Shmoos)!
Frazetta's Looie was so close, in fact, that Capp hired him to "ghost" Li'l Abner in 1954!

Reading Room WORLD OF FANTASY "Brain Destroyer!"

This title reminded me of Donald Trump...
...even though the story itself has nothing to connect it to the Republicans' hilarious President but the title!
No matter whether you agree for my reason for running the story, it's still a long-lost, never-reprinted tale from Atlas' World of Fantasy #19 (1959) you probably would never have seen otherwise.
Plotted by Stan Lee, written by Larry Lieber, and illustrated by Carl Burgos, it's typical of the sort of stuff Atlas was running as it transitioned into what we would know as Marvel only a couple of years later.
