What Was "Stop Project 2025: the Comic Book"?

It appears to have been a noble effort to try to warn the public before Election Day, 2024...

...by presenting the insidious Reich-Wing Project 2025, with over 900 pages of text into a graphic presentation broken down into 2-to-6 page categories ranging from Abortion to Taxes to War on the Working Class!
The assortment of talent was quite impressive...ranging from established writers and artists to up-and-comers with only a few professional credits so far!

Other contributors to this project have elected to not have their names listed here.
We respect and protect their privacy and thank them for their anonymous contributions.
Sadly, the response to the comic seems to have been minimal, despite a fairly robust on-line presence and articles in several media outlets including Forbes!
Perhaps part of the problem was that it didn't go on-line until the middle of October, only a couple of weeks before the election!
I'd like to point out I didn't know it even existed until yesterday, when it popped up in an on-line search I was doing for the works of one of the creatives listed above!
Starting tomorrow, and continuing through the month of March, I'll post a different chapter from the book each Monday to give you a taste of the quality work done for this noble effort!

Friday Fun / Baker Reading Room MGM's LASSIE "Down to the Sea"

As a dog owner, I say, there's nothing more fun than a playful dog!
Especially one who can do almost anything, except administer CPR!
Note: the b/w page is the comic's inside back cover, which was usually b/w or two-color.
The last page is the comic's back cover!
After the last movie in the original series came out in 1951, the comic continued, with Lassie linked to new humans, including photographer Rocky Langford and his girlfriend Gerry Lawrence on their trip to South America!
Penciled by Matt Baker and inked by long-time artistic partner Ray Osrin (who inked, among other Baker stories, It Rhymes with Lust), this tale from Dell's MGM's Lassie #20 (1955) is from the first issue of Matt's three-issue tenure as the feature's primary artist.
The writer is unknown.

Baker Reading Room: VOODAH "Monster Fish"

One of the first Lords of the Jungle was Black...
...and illustrated by a Black artist, specifically the legendary Matt Baker!

Illustrated by Matt Baker (who most fans know was one of the premiere Good Girl artists of the '40s-'50s, but don't know was one of the few African-American comic artists of the era), the idea of a non-White jungle hero seems obvious today, but was extremely-daring in the 1940s!
In fact, it was so daring that Voodah slowly became paler over the next few issues, eventually becoming just another White guy bossing the locals around!
Compare Voodah here with his first appearance in the previous issue of McCombs' Crown Comics HERE!
BTW, the "Clarence Ramon" credit at top is a house pseudonym.
Baker is the artist.
The writer is unknown.

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AIRSHIP ENTERPRISE "Infernal Machine" Conclusion

It's all been leading to this...

...as Captain Janus Tibbs, in a last, desperate move, has her steampunk airship do what, apparently, every flying vehicle named Enterprise can do...separate the saucer (er...discus) section from the rest of the ship!






"And the Adventure Continues..."
Sadly, no!
While there is a graphic novel compilation of the mini series, there hasn't been a follow-up since initial publication in 2014!

A New World of Wonder!
