You, too, can be FIGHTING YANK! (or at least wear his uniform shirt)!


We at Atomic Kommie Comics are really blown away by Alex Ross' Project SuperPowers!
(What can I say, I'm a serious fanboy!)
In fact, besides the retro cover art we offer at Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics, we've started a line of "hero insignia" shirts which will come in handy come convention season in making uniforms for the costume contest!
First up is Fighting Yank, with a bold 48-star flag unfurling proudly on the chest (Remember, Hawaii & Alaska didn't become states until the late 1950s!) and a tiny official Lost Heroes logo on the back collar area (where it won't be seen under your cape!).
Available as a sweatshirt or long-sleeve t-shirt, depending on how much padding you feel you need to achieve the "heroic" look you want. Tricorn hat not included. Sorry.
And, we the usual assortment of other kool kollectibles like MousePads, Messenger Bags, Magnets, etc.
Coming soon: more Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics hero insignia shirts including Black Terror, Miss Masque, Targeteers, etc.
Plus: Comic Book Logo shirts 'n stuff using the original cover logos for Black Terror, Green Lama, Flame, etc, as well as the titles like America's Best Comics, Startling Comics, Exciting Comics, Silver Streak, etc. most of them started in before graduating to their own books!

War is Hell...but so is Love!


We at Atomic Kommie Comics know that the path of love is not always smooth, especially in wartime.
In tribute to the brave men and women of the armed forces, we've created a new section of True Love Comics Tales about military-based love comic books entitled WarTime Love just in time for Valentine's Day featuring greeting cards, teddy bears, clothing and a host of other goodies with vintage retro romance comic cover art.
Show your beloved, be they an officer, noncom, or GI Joe (or GI Jane) that you're thinking of them on Valentine's Day.

Heroes of the Golden Age Return...


I'm ecstatic to finally see Alex Ross' Project SuperPowers!
It's everything I hoped in a Golden Age revival; respectful to the original material, but willing to tread new ground. Beautiful covers, nice inside art (though I hear the artist will, unfortunately, be leaving soon.), clever writing.
Two words: BUY IT!

And, if after reading Project SuperPowers #0 (Available now! BUY IT!), you have a craving for kool kollectibles based on the ORIGINAL 1940s versions of the characters, pop over to Atomic Kommie Comics: Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics where their classic cover art has been digitally-restored and remastered onto goodies ranging from messenger bags to t-shirts to mousepads to blank sketchbooks to Lord-Knows-What-Else. It's NOT Alex Ross, but it IS some of the best comics art ever from greats like Mac Raboy, Lou Fine, Reed Crandall, and Alex Schomburg, among others! Plus: multiple cover images for a number of characters including Black Terror, Fighting Yank, The Face (Mr. Face), Miss Masque (Masquerade), Samson, The Flame, Green Lama, The Owl,and Frankenstein (F-Troop)

One more time: BUY PROJECT SUPERPOWERS!

TRUE LOVE is in the air for Valentine's Day!


Comics aren't just about spandex-clad heroes and heroines in battles of cosmic import!
They also tell intimate tales of heartbreak and true love, betrayal and redemption, and misery and sheer joy!
With than in mind, Valentine's Day is coming, and what says "True Love" better than a gift from TRUE LOVE COMICS TALES? (Plus, it's both longer-lasting AND cheaper than a dozen roses!)
Choose from 20 different designs on greeting cards, teddy bears, calendars, shirts/tops/intimate wear, diaries, and many other kool kollectibles!

A public service announcement for all lovers from your friends at Atomic Kommie Comics
