This is from 1939. I don’t care how violent it may be or how many famous pirates might be hanging around, the beach sounds pretty nice right now.

This George Quintana cover is from 1935. I’m sharing it today because today is also the start of the Winter Olympics. USA! USA! USA!

Artwork of the Day: Snowslide (by Griffith Foxley)

This is from 1950 and I really hope that it’s not a story about what’s about to happen down here over the next few days. It’s supposed to snow today. Last year, it snowed at this time and there were people who had to go days without power. That was not a fun snowslide.

This cover was done by Griffith Foxley.

It’s been nearly a year since the Texas snow storm of 2021. When I took this picture it was below 0 degrees outside, the wind was blowing, and the power would only stay on for an hour or two a day. It was scary but, at the same time, it was also quite a sight to behold.

This is from 1960. At first, I thought there was a typo in the title but it turns out that the story actually does take place near a dam.

Great Moments In Comic Book History #18: Goliath Towers Over New York

This is one of my favorite Alex Ross images. I’m not sure if that’s Henry Pym or Clint Barton towering over the city but this painting captures the shock and wonder that would be generated by such a sight. It’s from the 2nd issue of Marvels and to me, this is what the MCU films should take some times to explore, not just the activities of super-powered heroes but also of all the ordinary people who have to try to live their lives while all of the heroes and the villains fight their petty battles.
