BangZoom Posted December 8, 2008 Author Share Posted December 8, 2008 Wow! Great clips, BZ. Thanks, BH. I thought it was interesting to watch Forry reminisce about his letter to the editor of Science Wonder, 79 years after the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 BZ, I couldn't find the cover in the Gerber guide and I didn't recognize the character when you added him in the last clue. But I knew that Famous Funnies had some additional Sci Fi covers that weren't in Gerber so Iooked at the GCD files. Sounds simple but I checked several other titles first. It was tough for me. Do you know who did the art and how long the character lasted? bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 Barney Carr, Space Detective had a short life. According to Overstreet, he appeared only in Famous Funnies #'s 191 and 192. The story published in #191 was later reprinted in Space Detective Comics #8 (I. W. Publishing; Super Comics, 1958). I don't know who did the art. Whoever it was, it was someone different than who drew the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I noticed the story was in an IW reprint of Space Detective, which I don't have anymore (and forgotten completely). I think Barney was overshadowed by the Avon character that was drawn by Wood. I am guessing that Fawcette did the FF cover. He did several nice science fiction covers of that time and Flash Gordon for King comics if I remember correctly. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 The cover art style reminds me of the John Carter of Mars Four Color cover. It's issue 375 and is by Jesse Marsh. Upon closer inspection, it's not the same artist but is reminiscent IMO. Four Color 375 on the GCD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
