As it appears the Grey Domino managed to run for a healthy 63 issues, it was a popular title and more will be uploaded here in due course. But I've scanned an issue of a different Terry Trowell character that'll be up in the next few weeks, before any more Grey Domino.

This week: two comics I hadn't heard of, but are good!

Man Out of Space is a one-off science fiction story, which I would welcome a sequel to if one existed, and

Middy Malone's Magazine volume 2 #3, an anthology title which has two or three stories, which last a varying number of episodes. This issue has the pirate Middy Malone, and two science fiction stories (including one with the sub-heading 'The Man Out of Space', no relation to the comic with that title!)

Good art abounds! It's 1940s writing, but still not a bad couple of reads.

This week I've uploaded...

Invisible Avenger 4 where the story heads into outer space, and

Climax All Color Comic 1 with adventure stories by Hart Amos and Vernon Hayles in a rare example of Australian comics in colour

This week:

Who lives down in deepest, darkest Africa? Yes, but also the star of Yarmak #20

Have you missed Frank Johnson? It's time for New Big Hit Comics to break the drought

Includes two servings of Stanley Pitt!

Once again Dan, so many thanks for these comics.  Always good to get an issue of Yarmak.

This week's comics from me:

Dr Mensana, the first appearance of arguably Australia's first super-powered hero.

Grand Comics, another 52 pages of adventure and humour assembled by Frank Johnson just for you (if you were around in 1945)

Dr Mensana looks a bit different as I used a different method of scanning due to the fragile condition of the comic

This week:

Another colour comic, titled The Cobra Woman. It actually contains two stories: 'Red' Steele in The Cobra Woman, and Shado McGraw in The One-Eyed Man.

And a slightly reconstructed comic: The Green Skeleton 4. It's a scanned reprint with two damaged pages replaced by single page scans foumd on the internet. I believe Green Skeleton is quite rare to find.

  I believe Green Skeleton is quite rare to find.

Looking forward to this one, Dan.
I believe FREW have been looking for a usable copy.

Thanks Dan. Green Skeleton, eh?  I've only heard of this title.  Great to have it.
I've ticked it in. Should be visible soon.

After my previous post about The Green Skeleton, I started to realise there was something familiar about the character.  I've been digging in boxes and on shelves and found the "Grand Comic Album" which is a thickish, b&w album reprinting a number of old strips, incl. The Green Skeleton. The Fruit Machine Racket.
The album also contains what looks like another Australian strip, Kid Champion.
The publisher is listed as Murrays Sales & Service Company, 157/167, Pentonville Road. London - if anyone would care to pass this on to GCD who have a listing for the name but nothing else.
Contents are:- Green Skeleton; Kid Eternity; Anthrop; 1 page Archie O'Toole; Scoop Scott; 2 stories of Kid Champion; Big Brother.
As I no longer have a scanner, I'll see if anyone would like to help getting this story, and the album up on site.

Great find, Paw!
