The Clown is Back Again!

The Clown is Back Again! published on 1 Comment on The Clown is Back Again!

The Blonde in a Red Dress, pinned beneath rubble (and cover blurbs), is waiting to be rescued by costumed heroes, who are themselves tied up and waiting for yet another hero to rescue them too?

No wonder the robot in the background is watching this farce play out with haunted, deer-in-the-headlight eyes. Alas, if only there was someone competent who could set him free from the cruel masters who take joyrides in his hollowed-out torso!

(Or… maybe the robot just really hates clowns, and is shellshocked from reading the upper cover blurb?)

United States Secret Service Agent?

United States Secret Service Agent? published on 2 Comments on United States Secret Service Agent?

Another name to add to her list of aliases! According to her exceptionally large ID card, the undercover Blonde in a Red Dress was going by the name of “Jane Dickson” prior to being captured by… um… a Nazi, a Japanese soldier with vampire fangs, and some guy with a green skull for a head?

The Blonde in Red should talk to her agent about her recurring appearances at “Top Notch Comics”, as they seem to already be running out of ideas: I think she might be tied to the same tree by the same villain and awaiting rescue by the same heroes as last time! Not even sure if the henchmen monsters count as being different, as they might just be the same werewolves at different points in their transformation.

This cover may be many things, but “Famous” and “Funny” would not have been my first choice of descriptors.

“One turn of the switch and the girl’s blood would forever be fused with the gorilla’s!”

Seriously, what was the thought process that would lead someone to think that A-Fishbowl-Helmet-That-Gives-A-Girl-The-Blood-Of-A-Gorilla is a worthwhile invention? Or a productive use of time and resources? Or worth getting punched in the face by the Blue Beetle?

Like a ghost!

Like a ghost! published on No Comments on Like a ghost!

Yup, a hero like a ghost (specifically, a more famous purple-suited Ghost Who Walks) but in an off-brand knockoff sort of way.

The Blonde in Red really needs to talk to her agent. If she has to put up with the captive-jungle-sacrifice Fay Wray homage, it should have at least have been done with “Duke in Gorilla Land” as the featured cover image instead of this Fantoman guy.
