Weird Paper Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 (edited) The artist's sexual proclivities are quite clear..... So are the reader's... I have a bunch of issues of the Funnies, but I only get them for the John Carter stories. I swear I've never read a Phantasmo story - not that there's anything wrong with that. Jeff I've heard that Larry Craig collect The Funnies......it all makes sense now. Didn't Phantasmo engage in some kind of toe tapping ritual? Now that you mention it, he did seem to have a wide stance. Edited October 9, 2007 by Weird Paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Moving on from Phantasmo and the slippery slope the conversation has taken, here's a no less oddball story. I did put up better stuff in the GA Contest thread in General: a couple of Reed Crandall story: Blackhawk and The Ray and a cool Midnight story by Jack Cole. Go check them out if you haven't had the chance yet. Meanwhile, here's John Quincy Atom (Note: the "That's me Folks!" was the typical line used by Groucho Marx when introduced on the radio game show You Bet your Life).

BangZoom Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 I'm a big fan of Alex Toth so I've enjoyed the recent discussions of his work in the Best Artist thread over in the Comics General forum and the Toth thread here on this forum. Here is an example of Toth's work that appeared in Crime and Punishment # 66. Crime and Punishment # 66 (March 1954) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theagenes Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'm loving the pulps! I've been picking up a few Argosys and Blue Books with ERB stories and covers over the last couple of weeks off ebay. It's amazing how cheap they are; these are essentially ERB true firsts, yet you can pick up pretty nice copies for under $50 (granted each novel is five or six issues, but still... ) Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
