Who's That Lady?
Sexy Lady! On one of my favorite websites, 'Comics with Problems' (no, I'm not talking Andy Dick), you can have your choice of huffing, VD, pot, sexual assault, and yes! your rifle and how to treat it like a lady, by Eisner Studios. Still in the package! Guess this soldier already knew what he was doing. Issued to every soldier in comic book form on their way to Vietnam. Sigh.

"If Thine Eye Offends Thee -"
Scan it!
Over at Crosseyed Cyclops, one of my favorite sites, he's been on a bender:
Just one of the many treasures he's scanned for your viewing pleasure.

Don't Drink the Kool-Aid
I know some people - grownups, in fact, who are still scared of the Kool-Aid man. Far more than the Jolly Green Giant. I mean, the guy is wacked out on sugar and busts thru walls! So when I saw this, I naturally had to download. From Crosseyed Cyclops, of course. He's been posting all kinds of gems this week.

Good Lord! Leopard Women on Giant Saurians!
The crudely surreal comics of Fletcher Hanks has a quality unlike any other work produced by Golden Age artists that were exploring the new genre of the Super Hero. Hanks is not a master of proportion or layout, nor does he have a cohesive storytelling flair. What sets his work apart is something that must be experienced firsthand - it is dreamlike and simplistically cruel. I always took great joy in reading reprinted Stardust tales that would occasionally pop up in G.A. reprint collections but when I finally got my paws on a comprehensive gathering of his work printed by Fantagraphics, I was electric with anticipation. I poured through the handsomely printed tome, entranced by the demented incoherence, eagerly tearing through the pages to finish it in a single sitting. The first offering from editor Paul Karasik I SHALL DESTROY ALL THE CIVILIZED PLANETS! concludes with a graphic tale of how he discovered a living relative of Fletcher Hanks - his son no less! What transpires in that brief encounter was an abrupt and sobering reminder of how we confuse our artists with their art.
A follow up to the first book, YOU SHALL DIE BY YOUR OWN EVIL CREATION! gives us the balance of all known Hanks comic book stories.
Everyone can draw some enjoyment from Fletcher - check him out further here.
