The Bieber/Archies/Jughead/Kiss Combo Action pack in 3D comes out in August.

Yes, this stuff is incredibly violent as it's all pre-code sci-fi horror. VERY hard to find, very expensive as they are part of the reason Congress went all ape-shizzle they put the code in place in late 1954 to shut down people like Bill Gaines of EC (Tales from the Crypt) Fame. There was a famous book published called Seduction of the Innocent that referenced many of these titles, and those books are worth even more. Bill Gaines quit doing comics as they pretty much blacklisted him, and went on to form Mad and lampoon the comic industry after they turned their back on him. There is quite a history there, and we'll probably see a movie about it sometime in our life.

FWIW, those Marvel Tales books by Atlas are what and where Stan Lee worked before Marvel became Marvel.

Out of this World guy better not touch that woman....worst case of crabs in the galaxy.

Did you read it yet? There's a lot of fine print to read, little comments by FInn and Jake in the sidebar and under the comics, fun, great comic with beautiful art.
