(For an introduction to this story, check out May 5th!)
My handy
Comic Readers' Almanac (Also for Farmers) tells by that on Tuesday, September 8, 1931, the moon was
not full, but rather "a waning crescent with an illumination of 11.91%." So this comic book has already lied to us visually, can we trust the
rest of the story?
from "The Incarnadine Bridge!" in Ghosts (1971 series) #97 (DC, February 1981), script by Mimai Kin, pencils by Dick Ayers, inks by Rodin Rodriguez
Now, since this comicy book we got here just
happens to be titled
Ghosts...well, I'm
not giving you any bonus points if you happen to guess what happens to Tully Mason and the conveniently placed vat of wet cement. I will give you bonus points if you can guess what sound effect it makes when his body hits the cement.
Aw, tough luck. He sank without a sound.
But there's a further twist to the story, kids! Tune in tomorrow for
more of the mystery!
This post was suggested by faithful reader and frequent commenter Blam, who's provided a lot of date references in comics that I'll spotlight throughout 2023 in this series. Thanks, Blam!
