Friday Fun THIS MAGAZINE IS CRAZY "Fact Realism vs TV is 'em Real"
Old West humor, illustrated by the legendary Jack Davis...
...but NOT from MAD!
It's from Charlton's This Magazine is CRAZY! V4N8, a MAD imitator which lasted only seven issues!
Both as a color comic and a b/w magazine, MAD inspired many imitators.
Some, like Cracked, are going even today (albeit on-line, not in print).Others, like This Magazine is CRAZY, were short-lived, but able, from time to time, to get work from MAD's regular contributors, almost all of whom were freelancers.
This particular piece from 1959 apparently was a satirical response to TV's sanitizing the images of both cowboys and Indians in ongoing series.
Westerns were the most popular scripted genre at the time, dominating almost half of both the prime time and syndicated schedules.
The writer is, regrettably, unknown but it could be Davis himself, who utilized this format in both issues of his own short-lived color comic humor anthology Yak Yak, as seen HERE and HERE!
The writer is, regrettably, unknown.

Reading Room UFO FLYING SAUCERS "Life on Other Worlds"
Specifically-themed anthologies are difficult to keep going for more than a few issues at a time...
...but Gold Key's UFO Flying Saucers / UFOs and Outer Space managed an impressive 25-issue run!
The series combined stories using documented UFO sightings with features based on reasonable speculation and tales that were flights of sheer fantasy,
Written by Leo Dorfman and illustrated by Luis Dominguez, this short from UFO Flying Saucers #1 (1968) falls into the "reasonable speculation" category...albeit with aliens who look like refugees from a Golden Age (1920s-1940s) pulp magazine!
BTW, Gold Key's former publishing partner Dell, had their own 1960s anthology, Flying Saucers, which began before UFO Flying Saucers, but only managed five issues!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder WOLFF "Mother of Waters"
At last, the never-seen (in America) continuation of the saga of Wolff...
...as our post-apocalyptic barbarian and Galadra meet...guess who?
Hint: Look at the title!
This tale from New England Library's Dracula #7 (1972), by Luis Gaska (aka Sadko) and Estaban Maroto takes a tragic turn.
But, it also sets up a major change in the storyline, as we'll see in the near-future!
