3 Cool Comics

Assorted comic book covers:




Planet Comics #53, March 1948. A classic bondage cover, there's really not much to say about it that isn't painfully obvious.




Strange Tales #78, November 1960. Cover by Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers. This cover of one of my favorites from era of Strange Tales. It's a little more subtle than most of Kirby's covers for this title. Well, it is subtle compared to Taboo!.




Adventure Comics #425, January 1973. Cover art by Michael Kaluta. I've always like this one. A lot of wonderful covers came off Kaluta's drawing board during this period. I mean A LOT. He has consistently produced a lot of really nice covers throughout his career.

Fake Photo Comics

I like to collect plastic toy soldiers and take pictures of them. I also like comic books. Here are the results of too much spare time and Adobe Photoshop.



Marx Indian + Marx Dinosaur = Turok, Son of Stone



Dollar Store Wolfman + Toy Soldiers of San Diego Church = Totally Fake Werewolf Comic



Marx Japanese + 1 Outnumbered Marx Marine = Marines in Battle



Marx Spaceman + Marx Dinosaur + Space Jam Rocket + Barszo Treasure Island Scenery = Weird Science



Unnameable Godzilla Toy + B Horror Movie Victims = Strange Tales
