| I remember finding this while traveling...it was in a rack of mostly pulp magazines in a Greyhound Bus Station in Baltimore. There was no specific rack for comics just pulps and a mixture of weeklies.  OO mm |

| I have always thought that the early TOMAHAWK stories were a continuation of stories from the EC (Educational Comic) series "PICTURE STORIES FROM AMERICAN HISTORY" .  OO mm |

| One of the more "creepy" villains. If I'm not mistaken did they not misspell villain?  OO mm |

| @martymann That Flash Gordon is awesome!!! One of the cover themes that I like to collect are UFO's. I have not seen this one, or if I have, I didn't realize there was an ufo on the back. It being a Dell Four Color just makes it more intriguing to me. But what REALLY got my interest was your comment about it being the 5th flying saucer story in comics. Since I read that, I have been trying to track down the first story. Alas, I have had no success yet. Do you happen to know what comic was the first? | ||
