Charlton Neo: December 2014
http://charltonneo.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Celebrating the resurrection of the mighty Charlton Comics line. Saturday, December 20, 2014. Anatomy of a Neo Story-Part 4. Portrait of the artist's workspace while drawing "Digger" Graves. Ideas are a dime a dozen. I have probably twenty or thirty of them a day.although, truthfully, most of them turn out not to be very good . Execution. 8221; thrill moment of the birth of any. Idea, I can usually spot it for the dog it is. Likewise, I know a good one when it comes my way . The bare bones concept- ̶...

Lee's Comic Rack: Bill Molno's 1970s war art for Charlton
http://leescomicrack.blogspot.com/2015/01/bill-molnos-1970s-war-art-for-charlton.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2015. Bill Molno's 1970s war art for Charlton. Technically, Bill Molno's '70s Charlton work starts in September, 1971 with "The Talking Tooth" ( Fightin' Marines. 99), but I strongly suspect this feature was an instance of delayed publication- stylistically, it is identical to a Nov., 1968 Fightin' Marines. Feature by Molno called "Silent Signals." Observe:. Molno drew one more war cover before Charlton mass-fired its staff in 1976, though that cover ( Fightin' Army. But we're here...

Lee's Comic Rack: August 2014
http://leescomicrack.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 21, 2014. Froggie and His Friends, from Our Young Folks- June, 1873. Scanned, and retouched, by me from my copy of Our Young Folks- An Illustrated Magazine for Boys and Girl. S (June, 1873). Awesome, cartoon-style artwork, but whose? More picture stories from the 19th century children's magazine, The Little Corporal (1873). I have no idea, though, somehow, I'm guessing "Private Queer" was fictional. Note the deviation from the shadow-play approach on the sixth picture story down, "Playin...

Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Exposed: The History Behind X-ray Specs, Gogs, Tubes, Pens, and Scopes. This image, borrowed from a pending eBay ad, shows a 1906 premium/gift offered by the Derby Supply Co. of Chicago:. The "X=ray" card above is nothing less than a much earlier, non-stereo version of the famous "X-ray" specs, spex, and gogs famous from Boomer-era comic book ads:. This device was allegedly developed by the German Secret Service during WWII, and we have no reason to doubt comic-ad copy:. Construc...

http://bluebeetlebc.blogspot.com/2014/06/024-in-which-danny-boy-sure-has-lot-of.html
The golden age adventures of the Blue Beetle: Before Charlton. Thursday, June 12, 2014. 023 in which Danny-boy sure has a lot of socks. This second epic-length 31 pager from Blue Beetle #3 deals with "the mastermind of crime", another racketeering honcho- only this time he's masked to conceal his true identity. This one has the staple of the series, explosions (and a LOT of them! There's an enormous amount of carnage and death in this one, and a lot comnes from the Beetle's own hands! The second volume i...
