Veterans Day Tribute to World War II Aviator Collectibles

 Comic books played a major part in shaping the public's impression of both our troops and our enemies during World War II.
Among the classiest were these three beautiful covers for Contact Comics, an aviation-oriented title. Spectacular, intense, eye-catching color highlights these poster-style pieces of art.
Each one paid honor to the aviation division of one of the three armed forces branches. (The Air Force as a separate branch didn't come about until after WWII)

Tribute to the Navy Air Corps
featuring F6F Hellcat fighters.

Tribute to the Army Air Force

featuring B-24 Liberator heavy bombers.

Tribute to the Marine Air Corps
featuring F4U Corsair fighters.

We at Atomic Kommie Comics™ have digitally-restored and remastered them on a line of kool kollectibles which would make perfect Veterans Day, Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, or 4th of July gifts for the WWII veteran in your life.
Choose from t-shirts, mugs, magnets, BBQ aprons, and many other goodies.

Reading Room: AMAZING MYSTERY FUNNIES "2038 AD: An Excursion to Mars"

In just a few years, we'll be spending our vacations on Mars, but getting there will seem awfully familiar...

...at least they thought so in 1938, when this feature appeared in Centaur's Amazing Mystery Funnies V1N2!

Writer/illustrator A S Van Eerde also did covers and interiors for magazines like American Legion, as well as fine art, but his comic book work was limited to this short-lived two-page strip that ran only four installments.

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder NIGHTMARE "Massacre of Mankind!"

Look at this tale and tell us...if you can...when was it created?

Was it
The Golden Age (1940s)?

The Atomic Age (1950s)?

The Silver Age (1960s)?

or

The Bronze Age (1970s)?

The answer will surprise you!

One hint: The artist who drew it worked in all four eras!

It was written and laid-out in the 1950s, but penciled and inked in the 1970s!

Scripted by Walter (The Shadow) Gibson and laid-out by Gene Fawcette back in 1952, the tale was fully-penciled and inked by Bill (Sub-Mariner) Everett for Skywald's b/w anthology Nightmare #2 (1971)!

It's actually the first chapter in a three-part tale, but the other two parts were never re-done!
You'll see the complete original tale starting next Wednesday!

Do I REALLY Have to Say It?

VOTE!!!

Monday Madness YOUR VOTE IS VITAL!!!

And there came a day unlike any other day, when heroes banded together to battle a menace so overwhelming no single hero could stand against it...

,,,unless not enough of those heroes actually go to vote!

Here's a handy (very) basic guide...

Illustrated by Warren Kremer and Al Avision, this one-shot published by Harvey Comics in 1952 (70 years ago) was offered for only a couple of pennies a copy to anyone who wanted to utilize it to get out the vote!

Amazing how it's both generic and pertinent even decades later!
Note: Out gratitude to the ever-amazing Kracalactaka for the scans of this ultra-rare comic!

Now, unless you want things to stay as they are (or get worse)...if you're over 18 and under 110...

...GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND

VOTE!
