The Alchemist-George Evans-1973


Thos eof you who know artist George Evans for his realistically drawn EC stories or his superb airplane stories or his noir newspaper strip art are in for a treat here with some rare humorous art. The story's not so hot but it's clear George had great fun here.

Ever wonder what Superman's foster father did before he retired to that little farm outside Smallville with Martha? Well, this probably isn't it but it's fun to imagine this as the same guy.

Peanuts-1962


Some of the early PEANUTS strips in comic books were nearly as good as Schulz's originals but by this point readers were getting a bit of an off-model version and Western's short-lived style choice of doing borderless panels and rectangular speech bubbles added to the oddball effect.

Little Captain Pureheart-1967


Every once in a while, Archie Comics reprints their campy mid-60s superhero stories but these Little Archie versions are generally ignored. At least I've never seen them reprinted. This may or may not be by Dexter Taylor.
