| This issue was excellent! 'Flash' Lightning, The Raven, Hap Hazzard, Marvo the Magician, X the Phantom Fed (apparently pulp's SECRET AGENT "X" with Betty Dale as his girlfriend), Ace McCoy, Hap Hazzard, and Whiz Wilson and his Futuroscope. Very fun issue! |
|
| What a comic Book! This should have been a ten and not a nine. You have the Lighting, killer alley cats, and sewer hide outs. And the Raven, and much more. Yes this should have been a ten. Why do they cut these great book down? Don't they know a great book when they see it? Give it a try and see what you think? |
