The final 5 KIT CARSON TALES from BOYS' LIFE magazine, early 1953.  I've also added links to other KIT CARSON comics to read online, including the ones at Comic Book Plus!

Just posted, and taking a break from the westerns... BIBLE STORIES, 2012.

This features the 9th version of "David" in the BOYS' LIFE series to date. Unfortunately, I don't have the end of this version yet, as the BL site currently cuts off at December 2012.  Oh well, just have to wait until next year for the rest!  (How's that for a cliffhanger?)

Just posted from BOYS' LIFE magazine, FRONTIER TALES, 1953.  This anthology series replaced KIT CARSON, and, I suspect, didn't last very long.  Artist Lee Ames continued on, but left after 5 episodes.

Just posted from BOYS' LIFE magazine...  MOG-AN-AH, THE MOUND BUILDER.  This short-lived, 10-episode series was based on a 1931 book by Irving Crump (who was BL's editor for many years).  However, there is no listing for the artist, and I'm at a loss to identify whoever it was.  Any ideas?

A bit late, but here it is-- the earliest POE comics adaptation I've found,
from CLASSIC COMICS #21 (July 1944)-- "THE MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE" !!! 
     art by Arnold L. Hicks

This is from a CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED reprint, so it's missing 1 story page, but that's their fault, not mine.

From CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED #40 (Aug'47), the 2nd comics version of
"THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM"
     art by August M. Froehlich

This is the full, uncut (13-page) version.  Most reprints cut 1 page by combining pages 2-4 into pages 2-3.

This is an unusual blog entry page, in that it's based on unverified information.  According to Trent's Poe Comic List (www.houseofusher.net), there is supposed to be a Poe adaptation in this particular Marvel / Atlas publication.  However, the GCD has NO information on it, and there is NO clue which story-- if any-- is or might be Poe-related.  Oh well.  At any rate, just in case there is a Poe-related story somewhere in there, here's the cover...

SPELLBOUND  2  /
cover by BILL EVERETT   (Marvel  /  April 1952)

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7b0B7jb-iTw/VFueDNqdQNI/AAAAAAAAUcs/KC2ZAJuZ43g/s1600/1952a%2BSB%2B02_cc_HA_HK.jpg

Now, as it happens, by an amazing coincidence (??), the TV series SUSPENSE ran a Poe adaptation on April 29, 1952.  And someone has posted it on Youtube!

And so, not one to waste a blog page (or an opportunity like this, here is the SUSPENSE tv adaptation of...  "THE PURLOINED LETTER" !!

I remember reading this one when I was very young. For some reason this story came to mind a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for finding it.

"The Gold Bug" is one of my Favorite Poe stories. By reading it I learned to read cyptograms as if they were printed in plain English. Been a long time since I tried this but I think I remember how.
