I have forgotten to upload the last of the Smith-Pocohontas story from Dan Heilman's American Adventure last week, so here it is. Happy reading, although the end may come as a surprise. I also added a new color scan I found of the July tenth strip, but I left the black and white version (from a paper that published a couple of sunday strips in black and white to catch up) so you can compare them.
A new story starts...

I Was The Title Style That Was Used Too Much
Jack Kirby Special 10.
Whatever the influence of these stories was on the work of Jack Kirby at Marvel, it is obvious Stan Lee pinched the I Verbed The Noun... style of story titles (and subjects), which Jack Schiff had taken from the than popular Men's magazines.
I am a Dutch television writer, who has written about comics and television for a number of publications here in Holland and in the US. I love hearing from (forgotten) artists and/or their relatives, so if you are one of those and happen upon this blog, please leave a note.
