Nothing special here except some gorgeous as ever art from Lou Cameron, one of the artists I've discovered by doing this blog and soon to be the subject of a Yoe book!

Imprisoned by Frizz-Young Love-1973
Joe Simon is generally credited with creating the romance comic book and in the early '70s, he briefly returned to the genre. The art on this--Creig Flessel? Simon himself?--is quite good and the protagonist quite cutely drawn!

Jumpin' Jack 'N' the Beanstalk-1977
Here's a very funny MADHOUSE story from 1977, possibly written by George Gladir and maybe drawn by Stan Goldberg. Darn Archie for their annoying lack of credits when everyone drew in a "house style."

This SICK piece parodies the popularity of Mafia related books, movies, and TV shows in the wake of THE GODFATHER and features art from the much maligned but truly unsung Don Heck.

The Wonderland of Oz-Walt Spouse-1940
These pages are from 1940 but reprint the daily newspaper strip from 1933, reformatted with word balloons and now in color. Spouse adapted and drew a half dozen or so of the original Baum novels during the strip's brief run.
