I'm not a comic book reader, but this comic is actually quite interesting
it seems like back than they can stick "atomic" on anything
atomic bullets, atomic hand grenades, etc

I just want the Trace-O-Matic on page two. :rotfl2:10 day free trial! Woot! Wonder if they send the model in the one-piece bathing suit as well? :D

bathing suit is an extra option.

Maybe he'll just forget to draw the suit... ;)

Here's the entire comic, one issue, others are in links to the left.

This comics are worse than Michael Bay movies :DL

Yeah, it is kinda funny how the header says "Only a Strong America can stop Atomic War", while there is rampant nuking in every issue. Maybe that partly explains why Ace Comics went outta business in 1956.:rotfl2:

Great find! I love those 50s comics! Especially the horror comics from this decade were never seconded. They somehow have such a unique spirit, a strange mixture of naive belief in technological advances and disappointment in humanity, caused by the slaughter a decade before.

If you don't know it, check out the film "The Atomic Cafe" - it catches a little of this athmosphere, a kind of dramedy documentation.

Also thanks to Betonov for the links to the other stories! :salute:
Gonna abuse my company's printer a little today!

But there's all this talk about reds in the comics, but they always show russians. Not one redhaired woman

I think you might be a little disappointed when you watch Red Dawn... :D

However the great tubes of the interweb have a list of redhead comics: http://www.raising-redheads.com/comic-strips.html :up:

Imagine they test the neutron bomb, and invited you to the event.
"Sit back and enjoy the show".

And when you hear that US prisoners and US military personnell were injected plutonium just to see what happens ... you're taking it all too hard ...

Miracle Mile. Rent it, and be sure not to read reviews or spoilers. Great film!

Speaking of comics, I've still got all of my "fightin' navy" comics.:woot:

Fantastic film. Well worth the watch.

Threads still hits hard for me. Particularly the bomb scene. The sheer grittiness of it, no flashing out skeletons.

Obligatory:

And Threads is something else. For me, it is the callous reaction of Jane to her mother's death that I find haunting.
