| Another fun Fiction House comic.
One of my first GA comics was an issue of Jumbo Comics - back in the 1960s- and I still have a special fondness for Jumbo Comics.
Still, lately Jungle Comics has become my favorite Fiction House comic.
Simba, corny as it is, is one of my favorite Jungle Comics features!
Thanks for sharing! |
