Okay, so this isn't a quartet  ...but here's another trio of comic book co-stars, from the Howard Hawks movie Rio Bravo: |

I watched a youtube video yesterday on the dissection of "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream" by Harlan Ellis. Within the video, among other visuals, art, and excerpts of Harlan's reading of his own story, the video showed comic pages of the story. Which I am 99.9% sure was John Bryne. But the author of the video didn't state where the comic pages came from. Does anyone know? I'd be very interested to read it.

It's from Harlan Ellison's Dream Corridor, which was published by Dark Horse in 1995. It was adapted across the five issues. |

I just finished watching a classic movie, Stagecoach (1939). Amongst it's stars were John Wayne, Andy Devine and Tim Holt Each of those actors had their own regular comic book series Has any other movie have 3 or more actors/actresses who also starred in their own comic book series? I'll accept 3 actor/actresses and 1 animal actor (Lassie, Francis The Talking Mule etc.) How about this quartet, who appeared together in scores of TV episodes? Bullet ever had his own title, tant pis. Yeah, I know Pat Brady's title is a coloring book, but come on, that's an achievement, too.     |

Ol' Pat had to watch Nelly Belle every minute of the day-- can't trust that psychotic little jeep even for a moment.

If you have a chance to watch an episode or two of The Roy Rodgers Show, it is very strange. It seems to take place in an alternative reality where the Old West is still alive in post WWII America.

Was the source wall the first text message? I believe Kirby adapted that from the Book of Daniel, in the Bible, as a fiery hand appears, during a feast and writes a mysterious message on the wall, which only Daniel can interpret. It can be further interpreted as deriving from God speaking to Moses and inscribing the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. You can find similar scenes in other mythologies. So, no; Kirby was borrowing from ancient myth, and then giving it his own epic brush. Besides, he didn't use abbreviations or emojis or write while drunk! |

Emojis were from the Egyptians.

Hello, comic masterminds.
Someone on my YouTube channel asked a question that I couldn't answer, but I thought one of you might know the answer. Here it is:
"Hi. Random question I hope you can assist with please. When I was a child in the 1960's my parents started buying a series of comics (boys journals) for my brother and I. We have been trying to remember the name for the last couple of years but without success. From memory they were delivered every month, and I recall the front page always had a comic series about a boy soccer player who had no shoes, but he was very good.
If you can offer any assistance it is appreciated. Thanks. Greg"
He didn't say where he's from, but my immediate instinct was this kind of sounded like a British comic. But that's just a wild guess. Anyone have any insight? Thanks!

Anyone have any insight? Thanks! I think your instinct that it's a British comic is right; I doubt it was an American comic if the front feature was about soccer. My first thought was that it might have been that the feature was Roy of the Rovers... www.theguardian.com/football/2014/sep/08/roy-of-the-rovers-60-years-comic-melchester-rovers-england |

Anyone have any insight? Thanks! I have a possible match: Raven on the Wing, from the British comic Valiant..... link The strip began, in 1969 and lasted until 1975, drawn by Argentine artist Francisco Solano Lopez. Valiant was also home to many of the features from Alan & Leah Moore's Albion, which were popular series from IPC, including Captain Hurricane, Janus Stark, Robot Archie, The Steel Claw, Danny Doom, Tim Kelly (of Kelly's Eye)...especially after features from other magazines, like Knockout and Lion were folded into it. |
