...Re: Daniel's " promotional texts " posting - I
think
that you meant to say that they were on the cover of
the comic , no ????? - I sort of think that the term
" blurb " is best , but , I suppose that that may be
to much of an Americanism ?????????
" It's spooky ! It's kooky ! " Oooh , I just LOVE
that !!!!!!! It gave me another laugh , just tuping it
again ! Thanks ! Frankly , my first inclination would
be to doubt that C.B. wrote 'em...but , perhaps , in
some cases anyway , he did . Sort of difficult to
imagine him writing " It's Spooky ! It's Kooky ! " ,
however ! Hey , did G.K. have an " ADDAMS FAMILY "
comic ?
I actually should , more straightforward
information-wise , that Gold Key's comics of the early
60s often had these blurbs...Including ( Especially ?
) Gold Key's super-hero/war/" serious " comics , such
as " MAGNUS , ROBOT FIGHTER " , and " DCCTOR SOLAR ,
MAN OF THE ATOM "...their " more dignified " answer to
the word-baloons employed on DC ( especially )'s
covers then , I suppose . It's spooky ! It's kooky !
BBOYY , did I get ( by my standards ) LLAFF from that
one !
Thank You ! It's spooky ! It's kooky !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
