There was a website six or seven years ago that had quite a bit of material from "Cartoons," which was a magazine from the early to mid-sixties you may or may not be interested in.

 I'll see if I can find a link, if the site is still up.

tried to load the 3 Teenage Hotrodder issues at GAC but they came as not a valid zip file ? Have uploaded other comic from GAC with no problems.

You might try renaming the zip file to ".cbz" (no quotes) and seeing if that works rb

Hi narf,
some have had problems with uploading cbr files but we've heard no complaints about uploading cbz or zip files via the site link.
