The readers have spoken. Reaction–both here and on GoComics–to Friday’s He-She comic–was overwhelmingly positive. You folks want more comics with the original, vintage dialogue–as long as those comics are truly weird.
I need to search my archives and plan this out. But more weirdness is coming sometime in the next few weeks!

And Now for Something Completely Different?
While doing Last Kiss I go through a lot of old comic art. Sometimes I come across something so unusual–and provocative–that I think readers will get a kick seeing it. So much so that there’s no need for me to add or replace any dialogue.
Today’s comic–written and drawn by Charles Biro–was one of those cases. My question for readers is: Would you like to see more wild comic art as is when I find something interesting. Let me know. Thanks!
Original Comic Cover
Since you’ve already seen the original art, I thought you might enjoy seeing the 1943 comic cover of Boy Comics #9 that went with it. (Click link to read the full comic book for free on ComicBookPlus.com)
↓ TranscriptLast Kiss Presents...
1940s comics were quirky. But few were as quirky as Boy Comics #9! It featured the story of He-She...a murderous bigamist who was 50
percent man, 50 percent woman
and 100 percent rotten.
He-She’s superpower? The ability to appear male or female as needed! (But only if you didn’t see both sides of his/her face at the same time.)
How did He-She seduce
so many women--and go on honeymoons with them?!!--
without being discovered? We never find out!
This is the first page of a 15-page story by Charles Biro and I swear I didn’t change a thing from when it appeared in 1943--except to give She some lipstick!
--John Lustig
Crime Buster meets He She
The deadliest of the species is the female!!
The strongest of the species is the male!!
Combine these with the killer instinct...and you have the most cunning
the most vicious
the most fiendish killer of all time!
