My Favorite Cover of the Comix I Own

Oh, there are some close runners-up, but this one just clobbers me over the head. I think it should be next to the word 'lurid' in the dictionary.

Plus it points out the dangers of illegal aliens...

Great...Do you have the book "Danger is my Business" . The Illustrated History of the Fabulous Pulp Magazines : 1896 - 1953 ?

No I don't have that one. I love pulp stuff and the internet has had so much material here and there that I haven't lately looked for books of that sort. Is it good?

I'm trying to scan books and move them out into the world to lighten the load. I own too darn many material things and I need to focus more on spirit and concept (and still enjoy imagery).

YOW! No doubt, "lurid"! Just spectacular - this is the kind of stuff that just destroyed kid's minds in the 1950's...good thing all of the moms got together and threw them all away. Otherwise, what kind of place would we be living in now? I shudder to think (of how great it might be!)...
