When at Disneyland, my favorite thing to do is watch Linda have a blast and also look for nods to live action Disney films of the past. Struck gold today when I spotted this poster. It highlights the club that was in “The Rocketeer”. Can be spotted at Clarabelle's Hand-Scooped Ice Cream. #Rocketeer
Mail Call: About to head out of town and this beauty dropped. Did a quick flip of the first few pages and knew I had to read it. Couldn’t miss our flight so did a little @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social digital maneuver and read it at Denver International. Thanks @comicfoil.bsky.social for the rec!
👑Wanted my watch face on point for #JackKirbyMonth, so added photos that will make my time keeping the pinnacle of coolness. Went with The King’s machinery and tech this year.
This particular run of Dell and Gold Key “The Three Stooges” lasted fifty-five issues. Out of those fifty-five, only one issue was not a photo cover, which is this issue #51. Head scratcher, as they also used some of the same photos more than once for later issues. Gold Key “gonna” Gold Key.🤣
Marvel Super Heroes no. 27 (July 1970) cover by Jack Kirby with inks by John Verpoorten. One of the last new Kirby covers on a reprint book at Marvel before he moved over to DC. Also the last X-Men reprint in this title; after this, the X-Men book became all reprints for 5 years. #JackKirbyMonth
Happiness? Celebrating 34 years together and Linda suggesting the new Spidey film to mark the occasion. Photo courtesy of our lovely daughter, Marnie!
Season 1 of one of my all time favorite series of any genre. Great characters. Slices of well placed humor in the action. Sets and design are eye catching colorful and of a time period I enjoy. And terrific cliffhangers, including the last scene. #MCUChronologicalRewatch #KeepPhysicalMediaAlive
Be sure to save the hashtag #SquareboundSaturday presented by our fine host @monstersocietyevil.bsky.social. Fun stuff guaranteed. 🙌 I don’t think I’m going out on limb and guessing that Doc doesn’t make a cameo in the film, but one can dream of Holland and “The Rock” someday making this happen.
The Monster Society of Evil@monstersocietyevil.bsky.social · 5d agoAnother #squareboundsaturday is upon us! What’s a squarebound you love? I’m seeing Spidey at A 9:40 show, so here’s ASM annual #1. What a comic!! #spiderman #marvelcomics #comicsky
For my final entry for #WesternComicsMonth I give you this, a gorgeous copy of Outlaw Kid #1 Cover by Joe Maneely September 1954
Rise and shine you owl hoots! The sun has already climbed over the Rockies and it’s time to saddle up for the final ride of #WesternComicsMonth ! My final entry is my all time favorite western cover and for some reason tougher to lasso than a tumbleweed in dust storm. #PrettyInPink
A trifecta drop for #WesternComicsMonth. Not all the Crabbe covers were western themed, but there was usually a western story within. There were only 12 issues in this run with some having Frazetta and Al Williamson art for covers and or interiors. These were by Mike Roy. Gorgeous copies to boot.
Ugh. Now i have to check myself. Do I really need to bid on this?

Rawhide Kid #17 (Aug 1960) Rebranding of the character by Jack Kirby. A big key for western collectors. I’d love to upgrade it, but I’m just happy to have a decent one. They are pretty scarce. #WesternComicsMonth Two more to go!
Some cold pizza and one hell of a book. Henry the VIII just died. Elizabeth just became Queen. Mary is in France thinking England will someday be hers. Damn, I’m not even a hundred pages in. I don’t seem to need to keep everyone straight as they don’t seem to last long or are sent packing. 🤣
Magazine Enterprises was a tour de force company during the Golden Age. Ghost Rider, Tim Holt and a long list of other classics. ✅1953 Scorecard Cover Artist: Fred Meagher #WesternComicsMonth
One of my western grails: Black Rider #1 (actually #8–it continued from Western Winners 1-7). March 1950. Stan Lee photo cover #WesternComicsMonth
Working on another Famous Monsters of Filmland cover recreation. Oil on canvas 40×30 inches.
Went to my LCS and my hold box was empty, so decided to do a box dive, but limiting myself to just one book. Saw this and said, “This is all me, son.”😎 Has more than fifty DC characters jammed between the pages and also includes a Mad Hatter six page story from a Pop-Tarts’ promo comic. Fun book.
Blaze Of Glory no. 1 (Feb 2000) cover by Leonardo Manco. This miniseries is great, featuring updated “realistic” versions of Rawhide Kid, Kid Colt, Two-Gun Kid, Outlaw Kid, Reno Jones, Red Wolf, Caleb Hammer, Ghost Rider, etc. Written by John Ostrander, art by Manco. #WesternComicsMonth
It’s #WesternComicsMonth day 26! Another Dead-Eye Western Comics #6 (1949) Cover artist unknown & little or no attribution known for interior. No splash pages in the book but attached a story opening page! My thanks to @realmarkrez.bsky.social for this topic! #goldenage #comicbooks
