This comics story is credited to "Thorne Stevenson", but I believe that it's Matt Baker art all the way through, although I'm not sure if Mr. Baker gets the writing credits too (doubt it). Published by Leader Enterprises / Universal Phoenix Features in late 1947, "Echoes of an A-Bomb!" is taken from Seven Seas Comics #7 (the last issue of that series). Alani, the South Sea Girl, was created by Matt Baker; the popular African-American artist whose cheesecake artwork during the golden age of comics is always in high demand.
The Catacombs is grateful to Don "Zu-Gogo" Falkos for providing the scans for this story. Note: The copyright for this issue, its contents and artwork belong to the original publisher and/or creators and is reproduced here solely for entertainment purpose.
Enjoy!
Awesome stuff.
ReplyDeleteActually, this is from Seven Seas Comics #6 (July 1947). The GCD guesses the script was by Roth Roche. It's been reprinted twice:
ReplyDeletein Fantastic Adventures (I. W. Publishing; Super Comics, 1963 series) #17
in Spicy Tales Special (Malibu, 1989 series) #2
Hope this helps,

I don't have my jungle girls disc with me at the moment, but I'm sure that this has been reprinted by AC Comics too.
ReplyDeleteI will have to check and get back to you.
