if I recall, there was an opium smoking panel in tec 1 too hm
drugs in 1930s comics (tsk) and kids were the target audience? :P

 

china was a major supplier of opium and with the way they dressed and smoked, it made them come off pretty mysterious to the little ones. Fu Manchu and such.

 

i would think it would have been a slight towards them until the war broke out and we had the germans and japanese to make fun of

Before the scourge of the nazi fifth column, or nips . . . the hob-goblin came in the form of chinamen.

 

I've always thought of the cover of DC#1 as a veiled reference to the first story. When the sick were thrown overboard and mysteriously washing up to shore; Speed Saunders uncovering a chinamen slave trade on board one of the ships.

You have the nearly complete Bat cover run in 4.0 blue , right?

 

Don't know if that would be a good idea - your dog might have a heart attack....
