BLAZING COMICS was first published in June of 1944 and the world was at war. The Green Turtle was a Chinese superhero who took on the forces of Japan. Tommy Paige the two-fisted Marine Combat Correspondent covered the front lines with the troops, but more often than not found himself fighting the good fight against the Axis menace. There are jungle adventures with the beautiful Jun-Gal whose African village was not remote enough to avoid Axis incursion. Shifting away from war stories are the gripping exploits of the Black Buccaneer as he sails the seas, dispatching pirates and marauders. Super Drooper and Drip are three hysterical misfits whose great enthusiasm is only belittled by their lack of common sense. There are even more wartime sagas full of aerial combat excitement with Native American pilot, Red Hawk. Ace detective and amateur magician, Mr. Ree, matches wits against a host of spies and saboteurs. The artists include the amazing talents of Chu F, Hing, Bill Allison, Art Moore, Ken Battefield, Harold De Lay, Henry Kiefer and Leonard Starr. Blazing Comics not only is chock full of outstanding stories and artwork, it also serves as a window into the mindsets of a population responding to life in wartime. That said these stories are a product of their times and there are images and comments that some people may find offensive. This book was compiled with the best images currently available. That stated, these stories are from comic books that are seventy years old. The best efforts have been made to make the pages as enjoyable as possible but not every panel is perfect and some allowances for the age of the books need to be considered when judging the overall contents
