Atlas April, Day 2: What you build in your basement workshop on your own time is your business, Mister Atlas

This 1943 Charles atlas ad is in two colors, so you know he's serious about bulking you up! What's the catch, Mr. Atlas? Did you have to train for a long time?


Charles Atlas advertisement in Fawcett Comics cover-dated October 1943

Two colors are also the advertising gimmick for the Bongo Universe's Atlasman!


"The Hold-Up That Made a Hero Out of Mac" in Radioactive Man #1 (Bongo, December 1993), co-plot, script, and layouts by Steve Vance; co-plot by Cindy Vance; finishes by Bill Morrison

Hey, I can also use this page for June's "There Is No Hope in Crime Alley" feature!

Until tomorrow: drop down and gimme ten, soldier! ...ten cookies, that is. Gotta keep in pleasantly round Bully-shape.
