Just realized I had failed to post this earlier this year: Jack Katz passed away in April at 97, one of the last survivors of the Golden Age:

Jim Shooter has passed away:

He managed a 60 year career in comics, with his first work being submitted when he was 13 and his first regular run, on the Legion of Super-Heroes in Adventure Comics, starting when he was 14.  I feel a little bad suggesting he did his best work when he was a teenager, but his early run on the Legion was absolutely amazing, one of the first to bring some of the Marvel Sensibility over to DC.  Thrilling and fun and with a sense anything could happen, including characters dying, and various clever twists.  One of my all-time favorite comic book runs.  He managed to annoy a lot of pros and some fans, but he did a lot of good comics as both writer and editor.

Hi Gang,

Thanks HP!

Many thanks, HufflePuffle, for uploading this rare old GA  Fox Features' comic book.  I've been looking for it for many, many years.  Now we are missing only 4 books from that series of 12, (6,7,8, & 10) plus only a handful of other missing Fox Features GA Funny Animal and comedy comic books.
