Pat Calhoun Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) welcome back BZ and happy holidays. I recognize Michael Barrier as co-editor of the Smithsonian Comic Book Comics anthology (1981) - still a big fave. & re JR Fearn - the '30s and '40s USA pulp stories were written for & first published in the US market. plus you can add Thorton Ayre to the JRF pile...

Duffman_Comics Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I was watching Dobie Gillis recently and thought their newsstand was worth a closer look. Atomic Archie China Patrol Arnold Nooper Those are some far out comics. BangZoom - welcome back. Looks like Classics Illustrated #149 (HRN 149) too.

BangZoom Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 Is everyone here familiar with the artist Kim Jung Gi? I only became aware of him a couple of weeks ago. According to what I have read, he creates all of these detailed drawings without benefit of any preliminary drawings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gojira Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Does everyone here know about Kim Jung Gi? I only became aware of him a couple of weeks ago. According to what I have read, he creates all of these detailed drawings without benefit of any preliminary drawings. He's quite amazing. I own his three sketch books (which are a bit expensive), the first one (2007 if I remember this correctly) being the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Calhoun Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 INNER COSMOS by John Russell Fearn, Scion 1952, Ron Turner cover. This invasion from the microcosm novel was based on ‘Worlds Within’, from the March 1937 Astounding. The Turner cover is truly tremendous… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 For those curious about such things, the image used for the New Year greeting is from Science Wonder Quarterly #1 (Fall 1929) Of special note, this issue contains Forrest Ackerman's first fan letter to a sci-fi pulp..
