Strange Tales 26

Strange Tales 26 -  (7)

This issue of Strange Tales stands out from others we’ve shared with you for a couple reasons. First, Marvel published it much earlier, in 1954. While we do have scans of earlier issues than that, they are admittedly poor quality. Even this one had some pages we just couldn’t bear to post, so you are getting two of the stories today.

Second, the good news: you can get a high-quality reprint of this entire issue from Marvel in hardcover format now, along with issues #21-30 (see our Collector’s Guide below.).

Third, the earlier publishing date means that this cover does not bear the Comics Code Authority stamp of approval. We believe you will find, as a result, a closer resemblance to EC Comics material of the 1950s. It’s rendered less in the embryonic “house style” at Marvel you find just five years later in this title. And by “house style” we mean “copying Kirby’s style and layouts or just having him block out the pages for you.”

But, that is a discussion for another time! Now, crack open the vault and gaze at the wonder of Strange Tales #26!

Collector’s Guide: From Strange Tales #26; Marvel . Reprinted in Marvel Masterworks: Atlas Era Strange Tales, Vol. 3

The Last Stop, art by Gene Colan; Guinea Pig, art by Jack Katz; A Grave Mistake, art by Tony DiPreta. To the Stars, pencils by Carmine Infantino, inks by Sy Barry; It Could Be You, art by Vic Carrabotta.

DC Comics took five issues of The Brave and the Bold to experiment with an unusual merger of science fiction and sports called “Strange Sports Stories.” From Gorillas using baseball for world domination, to 24th-century Martian golf tournaments, editor Julius Schwartz and artist Carmine Infantino crafted unique and entertaining short stories. Let’s check them out!

Collector’s Guide: From Brave and the Bold #49; DC Comics. Reprinted in DC Special #13, 1971.





Read a more detailed history of Strange Sports Stories from Mike Grost, who knows all the writers and all the dates, and a solid memoir from BuckBokai.

This Brave and the Bold series should not be confused with DC’s 6-issue revival of the concept in 1973. You can read some of those stories at Diversions of the Groovy Kind, or buy them here: Strange Sports Stories.

Several of those 1973 stories appear in DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #13. That tiny tome also reprinted a baseball game between DC’s heroes and villians that originally appeared in DC Super-Stars #10 in 1976. Thanks to Gutter Talk for helping us re-locate that lost treasure!

This story leaves the reader with an important moral lesson: if you know just enough about science, you can get through life by lying to everyone. What?! Seriously. If you don’t believe us, read it for yourself. Lying to your children is okay as long as you get famous and kill huge space monsters!

Collector’s Guide: From Mystery in Space #73; DC, 1962.

Adam Strange stars in “The Invisible Invaders of Rann!” (pencils by Carmine Infantino). Back-up story: “The Answer Man of Space!” Infantino cover pencils. Cover price $0.12.
