AGAR-AGAR "Martian Visitors"

When Last We Left Our Horny, yet Innocent, Sprite...

...well, all you really need know is that a good time was had by all!
Let's continue...

This story from New England Library's Dracula #9 (1971) was written by Luis Gasca under the pen-name Sadko and illustrated in a Peter Max-esque style by Alberto Solsona.

In prepping these scans, I discovered the stories had been published out of order!
Four weeks ago, I ran the tale from Dracula #8, so logically, the tale two weeks ago should have been #9...except the storyline from #8 lead directly into the story from #10...which leads into this one from #9, and, tomorrow, finally #11!

It'll be a groovy trip, baby!

TOMORROW...

The Startling Conclusion to this Psychedelic Saga!

We Guarantee...

You'll Cry If You Miss It!

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL (and WONDER WOMAN) "Revolt of the Super-Chicks" Part 3

We Have Already Seen...

...actually, we'll see this scene by Supergirl series artist Jim Mooney in. couple of pages!

In the meantime, all you need to know is that Supergirl has renounced being a crimefighter to become a Paris fashion model.

Wonder Woman, at Superman's request, follows Kara to talk her out of it, but becomes enraptured by a romantic Frenchman in the City of Love!

Meanwhile, metamorphing villain Multi-Face plots to steal an experimental rocket from a base nearby the "Isle of Love" where both the heroines are vacationing...

Considering they were both ready to throw away their careers (and in Wonder Woman's case, her long-time love Steve Trevor), the ending seems a bit...contrived!

The two heroines would meet again in the final issue of Wonder Woman before she renounced her powers for totally-different reasons...

Err...never mind!
BTW, you can read this tale HERE!

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL (and WONDER WOMAN) "Revolt of the Super-Chicks" Part 1

We wind up our Supergirl Blogathon with the first team-up of...aw, you guessed!

...in their first team-up!

Let's look in on the 1960s' most-notorious lovebirds, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, or as the story refers to them, "...two familiar faces..."!

Yep, you can tell this is the 1960s!

This never-reprinted Silver Age tale from DC's Brave and the Bold #63 (1965-66) features...

A cameo by Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton!

References to James Bond!

Superman doing an amazing "Adam West as Batman" imitation when discussing romance!

(BTW, this story was published before the Batman TV show debuted!)

And easily-swayed, apparently-nymphomaniac, superheroines!

What were writer Bob Haney and artist John Rosenberger (both of whom had romance comics experience) thinking???

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL "StarFire's Revenge" Part 1

When Last We Left The CW's favorite heroine...

...villainess StarFire's plan to use a romantic lure to use a super-power-eliminating drug on Supergirl works...sort of!

The drug causes Kara's powers to temporarily shut-down at random moments.

Luckily, Kandorian science, though unable to reverse the effects, provides her with tech to give her replacement super-strength and flight (though not invulnerability)!

Meanwhile, the villainess has killed her romantic catspaw, Derek, to prevent him from revealing to the world...
