TOMORROW!

Written by John Stanley and illustrated by Dan Gormley, this never-reprinted tale from Dell Comics' Four Color Comics: Oswald the Rabbit and the Prehistoric Egg #143 (1947) was part of Walter Lantz's licensing/publishing/animation empire that, in the 40s-50s was almost as popular as Disney!

Coming This Week: Oswald the Rabbit and the Prehistoric (Easter) Egg!

It's a Unique, Book-Length Easter Story...

...that hasn't been reprinted since publication in 1947, featuring a rocket ship, Amazons, dinosaurs, cute critters, and an animated character you've likely never heard of...or even seen..facing cliffhanger thrills!

It's Weird!

It's Wild!

It's Fun!

And it's Easter-themed!

What More Could You Want?

Be Here TOMORROW to Begin the Saga!

How Often Do You Read a Story Where a Writer or Artist of the Tale is the Space Hero?

Now's your chance, courtesy of writer Joe Gill and artist Steve Ditko...neither of whom look like the writer and artist in this story!

Yes, it's a little weird, and the idea that our sand would regenerate the metabolisms of aliens is, to say the least, highly-implausible!

But you can't deny the "meta" impact of the ending!

Friday Holiday Fun TICK TOCK TALES "Judy and Her Magic Chalk in the Land of the Easter Bunnies"

Though no other American comic publishers besides Dell ran Easter-themed anthologies...

...many ongoing series did run Easter stories, including this strip appearing in Magazine Enterprises' kids' humor anthology Tick Tock Tales!

Illustrated (and possibly written) by animator Larry Silverman who freelanced for packager Jason Comic Art Studio, this never-reprinted story from Magazine Enterprises' Tick Tock Tales #4 (1947) was only the second entry in the "Magic Chalk" strip, which ran for almost thirty issues!
Judy would also appear on covers and in two-page text stories teamed with other characters from the anthology like Goofus the Gopher and Spanky, but, oddly, never in an actual comic story with them!
