Did the senate commitee in 54 get on Cole's case at all? I'll try to state this in a PG-13 type manner but so many covers of "teenagers" (who usually look around 30) swapping spit,. Making out. Necking. 

And that one.......in the backseat of a car out in the middle of nowhere? We all know what that could lead to. That's right, a serial killer could get them. Zodiac, Son of Sam, and if things go too far Ghostface. I wouldn't want my daughter if I had one having that comic. It's worse that CSS 22 in my opinion.

They must've missed Mask #2 as well. People explicitly burning while Satan revels in it all.

No! Mask 2 sends a positive message- Be good or go straight to heck. I bet a few of those people on the cover spent some time doing what the couple on the cover of Pop Teens 15 were doing.

And if you're feeling lucky (and rich)...

To qualify as a real comic fan, legit Cole collector and true MAN, people need to bid on this to WIN. Failure to do so exposes makes you a fraud, cheapskate, dilletante and probably a communist. Stand up and for once in your lives and do something that actually MATTERS.**

 

 

**My status as the consignor has no bearing on this post. Underwear models, the US Army and beer manufacturers everywhere endorse collecting romance comics as a sign of virile masculinity.

One of the hard to find Cole space covers.  Goes hand in glove with the Blue Bolt space covers:

I thought with the encapsulation of pulps that a lot more copies of this book would show up on the census. Hasn't happened. I CGC'd this and sold it off. I guess it was a lot rarer than I thought as there's still only four on the census. Surprises me:

I have never seen that one. I don't even think it's in the Black Light book.
