The Boys from Derby: "Lost In the Land of the Lost!" by Gill and Boyette

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Here's a slight, but fun, Phantom adventure that really doesn't star The Ghost Who Walks, but features his lady-love Diana Palmer and his ward, Rex! Ol' Groove really digs Boyette's Sunday Funnies style spread on pages two and three--and do you think anyone at NBC was reading this comic and got inspired to create a certain semi-legendary Saturday morning live-action show? Hmmmmm? From The Phantom #52 (August 1972) here are Joe Gill and Pat Boyette with..."Lost In the Land of the Lost!"

The Grooviest Covers of All Time: Jim Aparo at Charlton

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Today, what'say we trip on back to, oh, about 1967-1970, when Jim Aparo was just taking the comicbook world by storm at Charlton Comics! Charlton's editors knew a good thing when they saw one, and they put JA on many covers--mystery, adventure, sci-fi, romance, western, race cars, even humor! And Jim could do it all--and quite magnificently! Have a heaping helping of Aparo/Charlton goodness and see if your day doesn't seem a lot brighter!










A big ol' "Thank you!" to Grand Comics Database for the suh-weet scans!
