Reading Room HOUSE OF MYSTERY "Human TIme Capsule"

Under this kool Ruben Moreira cover...
...lurks an even kooler, never-reprinted tale of illegal aliens and crime from DC's House of Mystery #64 (1957)!

So the American citizen is the criminal, not the "illegal alien"!
The Mort Meskin-illustrated tale left a possibility for a sequel, which was never realized!
Since even DC doesn't know who wrote it (and the odds are the author is deceased by now), we'll never know...

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder INVASION '55 "The Well"

We Have Already Seen...

...several disparate groups, including "rebel without a cause" leather-jacketed teens, the crew of an Air Force bomber, and typical housewives slowly discover there are extraterrestrials lurking about their SouthWestern town!
Now let's join a local elementary school as it lets out for the day, with everyone unaware of what's going on around them...











To Be Continued...
Next Wednesday!

There's no title for the chapter itself!
We added one translated from the one in the Spanish edition!
The Spanish-language reprint's coloring makes it clear the kid's Colt .45 water pistol is what hurts the alien!
(Though the kick to the crotch certainly doesn't help the ET!)

Reading Room AMAZING ADVENTURES "Amazing Prophecies"

Let's peer into a crystal ball from the 1950s...
...and see they did predict 3-D TV and bigger women (as compared to the females of the 1950s).
But the other prophecies from this never-reprinted feature illustrated by Ross Andru in Ziff-Davis' Amazing Adventures #4 (1951) have yet to occur...

The RetroBlogs 2025 Summer Blogathons are Coming...

Starting July 1st, we're running several blogathons...
With Fantastic Four: First Flight finally incorporating the characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we're presenting this long-OOP (almost a half-century) premiere prose novel (as compared to graphic novel) about them right here at
Atomic Kommie Comics
The legendary Man of Bronze takes on the Nazis at the 1936 Olympics as they put up an athlete who was trained from birth using the same techniques that Dr Clark Savage Sr used for Doc in this never-reprinted, almost 40 year-old extra-long comic!
Guest appearances by historical figures including Jesse Owens and Adolf (You Know Who)!
See the Nazi-Punching action at
Hero Histories and Medical Comics and Stories
Almost 40 years ago, there was a "high-concept" series about a tired, disillusioned comic book creator whose characters (a wholesome, upright superhero and hardboiled private detective) entered the real world!
With only seven episodes produced (four unaired), it's been largely-forgotten.
But there was a never-reprinted 2-issue adaptation of the pilot episode!
You'll see that at
Secret Sanctum of Captain Video
Here's a never-reprinted 1994 graphic novel based on Peter O'Donnell's first Modesty Blaise book, which provided about as much a basis for the 1966 movie as Ian Fleming's Casino Royale did for the 1967 flick based on that novel!
See what O'Donnell really intended at
Heroines!
And, of course, another entry in our "Beach Read" book-length gothic romance comic story series at
True Love Comics Tales
Stay cool...and kool...with
