"B" is for...Buster Brown Comic Book featuring Space Siren!

The second of Pappy's Plan B week (see yesterday's post for lame explanation of this theme) is for Buster Brown.

"Space Magnet" is another in the short series (five issues) of the sexy Space Siren from Buster Brown Comic Book, a shoe store giveaway comic. It's from #31, Summer 1953.

I showed you another Space Siren story in Pappy's #214.

Reed Crandall did the fantastic artwork, the rocket ships reminding me of Mac Raboy's beautiful Sunday Flash Gordon strips. Ray Willner, who usually drew more down-to-earth subjects, like the tales of Gunga the Indian elephant boy, did the inking.

Not only were issues of Buster Brown Comic Book undated, they weren't copyrighted. Someone could use these characters. C'mon, you artists...let's see your versions of Space Siren and the Interstellar Police.
