Don't restrict yourself to the comics, have a good look around the site.,
to name a few, In the Pulp section there are a number of old Science Fiction magazines. In the 'Vintage movies and TV' there are series of Flash Gordon and others.
And in the 'Old Time Radio' section there are many Radio shows in the genres you like.
So enjoy! Nobody knows everything, as you will find if you read the threads and posts, and please dol And please join in. Stay here long enough and you will become more of an expert.

Cheers!

DECSPEC, My Bad! Somehow I missed that you were from Ireland! Must have been half asleep at the time!

There are quite a few titles that are similar to 'Unusual Tales'. Try 'Adventures into the Unknown' here

But really, I found when I first arrived here - a few years ago! - its more fun just to go to the publisher list and browse through the titles and surprise yourself!

Happy browsing!
