According to JC this (see below) is the typical reaction of a bread-stick armed Comic Book Collector to any female lol The more I see Rudy Palais's work, the more I appreciate it. Unfortunately, he never worked (?) on a well known mainstream feature and his work is flying under the radar. Thanks for posting these examples.

This illustration makes me realize that we typically see robots on comic covers, running around without any active control by human participants.

 

It's nice to finally see a robot being supervised by a responsible adult. lol

(worship) How much more white can this be? Love the Public Enemy (another great copy) and ... let's admit it: all the others, included esp. the 20-center Speakeasy which must have been a tough sell on the newsstands. Oh, and the Crack Detective # 1 :cloud9:

Really great early crime pulps, BZ!! I love seeing oddities like that. Were any of those one-shots that you know of?

 

(I LOVE those early Saunders covers!! (worship) That man could draw and paint like no one's business!!)
