cyberghostfaceIn honor of his new season tomorrow, here's a time where Daredevil attempted to kill a woman who was stuck in a coma.

So I was going to post the conclusion to the Music Master's first case, but eh...after a while one MM story begins to seem pretty much like the next. Instead, I bring you this very cracky four-page PSA for war bonds, from Reg'lar Fellers Heroic Comics #15 (Nov. 1942). Scans for this public domain work are courtesy of ComicBookPlus.com.
Trigger warning for the usual sort of WWII-era racist caricaturing.

perletwoOK gang, it's time for LOSH #23, "Aftermath," and you all know what THAT means....
On the upside, we do get lovely Kevin Maguire art for Aftermath. If you've ever wanted to see what Maguire could do with Bouncing Boy - and if not, why not?!? - this ish is your chance.
( Everything since the crash is a cauchemar. )
And that's it until some other creator decides to reopen the toybox. Long Live the Legion!

perletwoWas cleaning up a closet last weekend and came upon my cache of original Teen Titans floppies. Here's a little treat from 1972, "Through These Doors Pass the Bravest Titans of Them All," or as I like to think of it, "That time Donna shaved her head and crossdressed for justice!" I've got six pages of an 18-page story, and therefore am cutting the Mal sequence down to a mere preview image.
That's Mal having a flashback to a childhood beat-down, to explain his heretofore unheard-of fear of wide open spaces, which he must overcome in order to repair a lunar landing guidance module.
( Say what, now? )
So there you go - not bad for an ish where nobody even makes it into costume!

A happy ending for once
Sep. 16th, 2011 10:07 pmcyberghostfaceThere was a post here earlier about how some people robbed a special needs man of his extensive Superman collection. I'm glad to report that there's a happy ending; the thieves were caught and arrested and the man got his collection back. The extras that he received from fans looking to replenish his collection he's decided to donate to a charity.

What if Dennis the Menace had superpowers?
May. 1st, 2011 07:16 pmstrannik01When the U.S. version of Dennis the Menace became popular, many comic companies jumped on the bandwagon. But Toby Press, the publisher that brought you Jon Juan, the Super Lover, decided to take it one step beyond.
Ollie Orwell was a 6-year-old kid from an unnamed Midwestern city. He was a perfectly ordinary kid until he discovered a tattered magical cape in his attic. The cape gave him all of Superman's powers. Now, if he was older and more responsible, Ollie probably would have become a superhero. But Ollie wasn't mature enough to think through on the consequences of his actions, so he became known as the Super-Brat.
That's right - Ollie Orwell was Dennis the Menace - with Superpowers.
He appeared in four issues of Super-Brat comic. Toby Press went under before the 5th issue could be published. Charlton Comics (out of all companies) bought the rights to some of Toby's titles, including Super-Brat. Charlton published the 5th issue as Li'l Genius #1. In the next issue of Li'l Genius, the writers revamped Ollie and took away his magic cape and made him just plain old Dennis the Menace proxy.
But those stories are boring, so I'm going to post scans from the Super-Brat era.
The following story was originally published in Super-Brat #2. Writer unknown, art by Harry Betancourt.
( Ollie tries to get a puppy. That... does not go over well (6 pages under the cut) )

Lois Lane is surprisingly self-aware
Apr. 1st, 2011 10:54 pmgalateusFor years Lois Lane, Girl Reporter, has yearned for her Boyfriend of Steel to propose to her-- yet when the fateful day comes, she refuses him! Why?
baihuI particularly like how Marvel Boy's reaction and the 'narrator' of the caption boxes all fit so well into the lack of context.
