Friday Fun CRAZY "Tales from Aesop's Stables"

Here's a never-reprinted example of horror humor...
...from one of Atlas' several MAD clones, Crazy V1N7 (1954)
Despite the title, this piece written and illustrated by Howie Post was not part of a series!
Well, perhaps it was!
But since this was the last issue, no other installments were ever seen!

Reading Room VENUS COMICS "Plot!"

With concern mounting about artificial intelligence (AI) taking over more and more control of our daily lives...
...we thought we'd take a look at one of the early tales about robots rebelling against Mankind!
As you might have guessed, we're re-presenting the never-reprinted back-up stories!
This back-up story from Atlas' Venus Comics #11 (1950), is illustrated by Russ Heath.
The writer is unknown.
Long before the Terminator and Matrix films, sci-fi literature presented examples of our creations such as the Robotmen of the Lost Planet one-shot comic we recently re-presented!

Reading Room WEIRD TALES OF THE FUTURE "Speck of Stardust!"

A tale about the warmth of love in the coldness of space...
...with a twist ending worthy of The Twilight Zone!
Illustrated by Hy Fleishman, this never-reprinted tale from Key's Weird Tales of the Future #4 (1952) by an unknown author is rather melancholy, but haert-warming, showing the power of True Love under near-impossible conditions!

Monday Memorial Day Madness SGT FURY AND HIS HOWLING COMMANDOS...in Korea...and VietNam???

Yep!
The guys who (almost) won World War II single-handedly (as a team)...


...fought in Korea (over half a decade later), and, fifteen years after that...


...in VietNam!
