Vintage Science Fiction Comic Art

Here are a few old comic book scans from the Bob's Comics at the Crossroads Birth of the Silver Age Facebook group. Most of them are scans of vintage DC Comics' science fiction books like Mystery in Space and Strange Adventures. There's a cover scans and then a scan of the first page of each story in that book. Lots of fun, and due to big heat wave, "The Day the World Melted" has a certain relevance. And Bob has the credits down for you, which is great.

For instance, here's:
