Space Hero Saturdays STEPHEN COLBERT'S TEK JANSEN "Danger Express to Doom!"

Have You Seen the Movie Bullet Train

Well, Tek Jansen did something similar, over a decade before the movie came out!

And he did it with a twist the movie didn't have!

With the re-presentation of this tale by writer Jim Massey and artist Robbi Rodriguez from Oni Press' Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #2 (2007), we conclude our mini-marathon in tribute to the final episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert!

But though The Late Show is gone...

(as they say at the end of the James Bond films)

Tek Jansen Will Return!

Friday Fun BASEBALL COMICS "Rube Rooky Heads Down the Home Stretch"

When Last We Left Our Wholesome Hero...

...under coach Pop Flye's guidance, Rube has developed into a top-notch pitcher.

But even a first-rate hurler needs a great team behind him!

Fortunately, the formerly-mediocre Badgers are inspired by the pitching prodigy and...

Regrettably, there was no "next issue" of Baseball Comics, so no World Series appearance for Rube Rooky.

But we still have this one-shot wonder from 1949 by writer/penciler Will Eisner and inker Tex Blaisdell to remember.
And, after Kitchen Sink Press reprinted this issue in 1991, there was a second issue  in 1992 reprinting a horror comics baseball story and a Will Eisner Spirit story about baseball, but without The Spirit!

Reading Room MEN'S ADVENTURES "Secret of the Flying Saucer"

In the Early 1940s-Early 50s, Pop Culture Went Flying Saucer Mad...

...and comics publishers (just like b-movie studios) eagerly took advantage of the insanity!

The writer of this never-reprinted tale from Atlas' anthology Men's Adventures #5 (1950) is unknown and the art is apparently an art jam including Bill LaCava and Vern Henkel.
