3-Day Weekend Matinee: Day The Second

Continuing our weekend matinee, we have part 2, of course, of our main feature - Vic Torry And His Flying Saucer from Bob Powell, and chapter 2 of our serial - Twin Earths, from Oskar Lebeck and Alden McWilliams. Today's extra feature is a couple of shorts from our old Fly Girl friends - Jet Dream And Her Stunt-Girl Counterspies.
If you missed yesterday's matinee and want to catch up, here's the quick link.

First up, our serial feature. In chapter one, we met Vana - an agent from Terra, another human inhabited world that exists in an opposite orbital position from our Earth. Vana is attempting to convince our government of her story and the FBI has assigned agent Garry Verth to investigate her tale...

Twin Earths - Chapter 2:

To Be Continued...


If you haven't met Jet Dream's team before these two posts should give you a fair introduction, though there have been a few more here. The team's adventures only run 4 pages apiece, so we've got two for you today -



Refill the popcorn & drinks - it's time for the main feature: part two of Vic Torry And His Flying Saucer -


Join us tomorrow for the concluding chapter of Vic Torry, as well as more Twin Earths and ...?
(And maybe a movie tonight? We'll see how the connection holds up)

Sunday Matinee Triple-Feature-In-One

Welcome back to our weekend visit with old friends. We've got something special for the main feature on today's matinee - a triple team-up with Supersnipe, Ulysses Q. Wacky and Herlock Domes.in a full length adventure; 25 full pages from back when other heroes were only getting 8-12 for their stories. Or less.

First up though - Jet Dream and her Stunt-Girl Coutnerspies!
For our bracketing tales this time, let's focus on the newest S-GC, Ting, whom we met yesterday. First, a two-spy mission with just Jet & Ting -



We've seen before how Supersnipe has crossed paths with other superheroes like Doc Savage and The Shadow. This time our heroic trio (no, not the ladies) teams up with a hero of a different kind...



And, finally - the penultimate episode of Jet Dream - The Terror Of Ting-A-Ling


We've covered about half of the Stunt-Girl Counterspies' adventures this past week. I'm sure the other half will show up before too long. (After all - the artwork is already prepped & ready to go.)
