Decent Comics: "Preparen!" by Aragones, O'Neil, and Cardy

Saddle up, Groove-ophiles! We're a'goin' on another adventure with Bat Lash (from ish #5, April 1969). This time 'round, Lash jumps out from the fire (a firin' squad, t'be ex-act) and back into the (gun) fire in the space of about 23 pages (give or take a rattle snake). Intrigued? Well, ya should be--those comicbook hombres Sergio Aragones, Denny O'Neil, and Nick Cardy allus shoot straight and deliver a rip-snortin' campfire tale!

    Amusing story. I had one of those Red Baron models in the Monogram ad. Sooo long ago! Thanks Groove!

    Appreciate seeing more of Bat Lash, but I couldn't "embiggen" page 3.

      I can't either. I re-upped it, and it still doesn't work. One of those Blogger bug-a-boos. Haven't had that happen in a while...
