Monday Madness REAGAN'S RAIDERS "...Back to Zero!" Part 1"

With Don da Con fantasizing he looks like Elvis Presley (presumably in his declining years)...

...let's look at a 38 year-old comic that, substituting today's 2024's senile, elderly, obese Republican for the 1980s model...could be published today!

Be here next Monday as the mayhem from the never-reprinted Solson's Reagan's Raiders #1 (1986) ensues and we present background info on writer/co-creator Monroe Arnold and his unusual connection to comics, as well as this little-known comic company with an amazing pedigree!

Space Hero Saturdays COMMANDER BATTLE AND THE ATOMIC SUB "Journey to the Moon with the Atomic Commandos!"

If you thought spaceships with propellers were weird...

...what do you think of traveling to the Moon...using an atomic submarine to get there!
(Yep, you read that right!)

Be Here
NEXT SATURDAY
for the astounding conclusion...

I'm surprised Irwin Allen never did a Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea episode like this!
Making a submarine into a spaceship seems like the sort of thing he would've loved to do.
(Adding a kid sidekick, though, is never a good idea.

They end up taking over the spotlight, and the series' emphasis goes from soft sci-fi to kid-show.)
Note: the 1990s TV series SeaQuest DSV did have it's sub go into outer space...transported by pacifist aliens to their homeworld to fight a war for them!
This never-reprinted tale from ACG's Commander Battle and the Atomic Sub #3 (1954) was produced by series creators Richard Hughes (writer and editor) and Sheldon Moldoff (illustrator).

Friday Football Fun BABE "and the Chicago Crushers Football Team..." Part 1

With female interest in the Super Bowl at an all-time high...

...we thought we'd re-present an almost century-old example of how the game might be with a woman super-star...and what a woman she is!

This never-reprinted, intellectually-stimulating adventure from Prize's Babe #4 (1948-49) continues...
NEXT FRIDAY!

One of writer/artist Boody Rogers' wildest creations (and that's saying a lot), Babe: the Darling of the Hills, was a hillbilly series "inspired" by the phenomenal success of Al Capp's Li'l Abner in the late 1940s!

Babe Boone derived her abilities from "lightning juice" which was fermented from the bark of trees struck by lightning!

The series ran 11 issues.

When it and Rogers' other series, Sparky Watts, were cancelled, Boody retired from commercial art and comics, opening a pair of art supply stores!

Reading Room UNKNOWN WORLDS OF SCIENCE FICTION "Hunter and the Hunted"

This is a tale that requires careful study...

...since, according to it's author, only one person has ever figured it out on first reading!

Originally published in the one-shot fanzine Abyss in 1970, Marvel's Unknown Worlds of Science Fiction #2 (1975) reprinted the tale after it's writer-artist, Mike Kaluta gained pop culture fame as the illustrator of DC Comics' revival of the pulp hero The Shadow!

UWoSF Editor Roy Thomas commented that Kaluta “…congratulated [him] for being one of the few human beings he’s met who actually figured the story out on first reading.”

Have you figured it out, dear reader?
