Feel like a kid "again" . . . from the 1950s!
This book collects and reprints tales from the Golden Age of comics, with stories themed to exotic femme fatales. The stories chosen are obscure, a little cheesy, and purely fun. The artwork is classic, the storytelling is rudimentary, but the output is great.
If you find yourself watching the B horror movies on Saturday nights, then this comic will be quite enjoyable to you. Plot points can twist in abbreviated ways, but an overarching story stays consistent. Plus, the books display how good comics used to be at telling a complete story in 8 pages.
This is the type of book that would get read again and again. If you have a summer vacation planned, grab this book and make a pledge to read it over and over while you are relaxing. You'll feel like a kid again.
