Monday Madness CAPTAIN ELECTRON "Mr Computer"

Now this guy is exactly who we need in the era of deep fakes and potentially-insane AI!

Unfortunately, the "Today" the title refers to is 1986, though the art style looks like something from the Golden Age!

Despite looking like it was drawn in the 1940s, this tale was produced in 1986 to recruit students for a computer technology school!

The one-shot promo comic was written and illustrated by Golden Age artist Jay Disbrow, who served as Public Relations Director for Brick Computer Science Institute from the mid-1980s until it closed its' doors in 1994.
Jay continued to appear at comics conventions and, in 2000, started a webcomic, Aroc of Zenith, producing new material until 2005.
He passed from this mortal coil in 2017.

There's MORE Tales to Tell in Our 2024 Summer "Time-Lost" RetroBlogs Blogathon!

We've decided we really don't need Vitamin D from sunshine when we can get it from pills, so...

If you liked our re-presentation on
Secret Sanctum of Captain Video
about "Pryde of the X-Men" (including the cartoon itself), we're re-presenting the limited-edition, never-reprinted comic that accompanied the video game Madness in MurderWorld!, which utilized the heroes and villains from that cartoon!

And, as a bonus, some of the kool stuff from the operations manual for the game, which tells you...

Wise advice, that!

In addition...

...we're also adding the never-reprinted Silver Age adventures of Charlton's Judomaster in

Pop Art Martial Arts

Plus...

...the saga of a woman alone upholding law and order in the West, written and illustrated by comics legend Bob Powell, unseen for over seventy-five years in a crossover between...
Heroines
and
Western Comics Adventures
That's in addition to...

To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of The Shadow (the Movie), a re-presentation of the 2-issue adaptation of the film by the man who visually-defined He Who Knows What Evil Lurks for several generations of readers, Mike Kaluta (along with writer Joel Goss)...plus we're providing comparisons between the comic and the movie (with film clips) in...

Crime and Punishment!
Next:

We're doing an intra-blog crossover right here at Atomic Kommie Comics between Wednesday Worlds of Wonder and Space Heroine Saturdays with a graphic novel featuring the interstellar adventures of StarFawn by writer Byron Preiss and illustrator Stephen Fabian...unseen since 1976!

(That's almost half a century!)
Plus:

Travel back almost a full century (1936) to the origin of the first (radio/movie serial/Golden Age) Green Hornet and Kato in a time-lost tale from 1991!
Confused?
You won't be after you read it in
Crime and Punishment!

And, Of Course...

...There'll be a Book-Length Gothic "Beach Read" Novel from half a century ago in

True Love Comics Tales

It's Gonna be a Sizzling Summer!

(Not that we'll know, since we'll be sitting indoors with air conditioning!)

Space Heroine Saturdays: BARBARELLA Part 1.0

While most are familiar with the psychedelic movie starring Jane Fonda...

...few are those who read the entire Barbarella saga, much less the four stories that comprise the translated graphic novel that introduced her to English-speaking fans in 1966 after becoming a smash hit in Europe.

Now, jump in, the way readers in the '60s had to, and try to keep up...

Tune in
Next Saturday
 for the conclusion to Part 1
Note: This material is from the original Grove Press edition from 1966.

Friday Fun DASHERS Conclusion

When Last We Left Our DoorDash Deliverers (aka Dashers)...

...all of whom possess super-powers which they utilize in their jobs, the Dashers are unaware of a menace not only against them but all humanity, named Quantyl, whose influence is spreading!

But, perhaps, the Dashers have finally realized that, "With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility!"

(Where have I heard that before???)

Does this mean we could see some of the Dashers as candidates for Avengers Academy?

Not very likely, since this 2022 one-shot comic establishes that there are potentially hundreds, if not thousands of them exist in whatever section of the Marvel Mutiverse this is set in!

A Couple of Treats to Apologize for the Delay Between This Post and Part 1...

Reading Room D-DAY with BLACKHAWK, SGT FURY, and SGT ROCK!

It was damned crowded 80 years ago today at Normandy Beach!

Blackhawk and his team were there, battling (what else?) giant Nazi war machines and revealing their secret origin!

Sgt Fury and His Howling Commandos were there (although the cover was a "cheat", since they swam in using SCUBA gear a couple of nights before, knocked out Nazi defenses and communications, then proceeded to the invasion site from inside France)!

And Sgt Rock was there, leading Easy Company into the thick of it!
