In the Shadow of the Atomic Age 6 6

I was going to scan # 72 and 71 last night and now I am glad I didn't. Astounding copy, tth2.

 

In my mind, Artists 3 and 4 are one and the same.

I really love the cover of #72 with that electric blue background.

Interesting. So how about the artist on the Lone Ranger covers? Here are scans of my three earliest issues:

The signed middle one is easy. That's Ernest Nordli. He did most of the early Tonto covers as well.

Did someone say early Tonto covers?

Tonto is a fine Injun, that's for sure!

You're going to have a lot of fun comics to share with your little girl.

Thanks

 

She's not yet ready for these but, at least, she loves it when her mom (or dad) reads to her so, so far, we're in good shape

 

My problem right now is that she figured out on Wednesday that the comic book rack swivels and she likes to rock it back and forth, back and forth, faster and faster ...

I'd say it's high time you got her a rocking horse then.

So post all your Atomic Age superheros, westerns, romance, adventure, and war!

 

Okay. I'll do as you say then. Here's a superhero title:

When folks hear of Atomic Age books they figure that you're talking about Horror, Science Fiction, Crime and Good Girl comics. The more outrageous the book is, the better it is. Since there are already threads devoted to these, this thread is for genres that get eclipsed by their more shocking counterparts.

What about funny animal books then? You didn't either specifically exclude them nor did you specifically include them.

This thing is too cool to be posted in just one thread. I've always loved early Steve Ditko art and this one has two stories by him inside. The cover is not about a story involving Gwen Stacy's mom and a young J. Jonah Jameson, although you can see how I made that mistake. In fact the cover has very little to do with any of the interior stories but it's still cool.

 

 

The best $70 pick up on ebay in quite a while for me.

Gotta love those Dell painted covers! Clearly the same artist also did many Tarzan painted covers.

[Hepcat]

Alright then. I'll post three more:
