...unfortunately, not in bikinis!

It's too bad these stories were limited to 4 pages at a time, posing a real challenge for writer Dick Wood.
This story from Man from U.N.C.L.E. #10 would've benefited from another 2-4 pages of kick-assery in the inimitable penciling style of Mike Sekowsky, who, sadly, did only one more Jet Dream tale (Which we presented on our "sister" blog, True Love Comics Tales™).
Joe Certa illustrated most of the remaining stories, including the one-shot full-length comic, with Jack Sparling contributing our next Jet Dream tale, which we'll be presenting after the New Year.

Ah-so that's how she joined them. Never seen this story. We only got to see Jet fighting Kong in the end and have to imagine the team beating up the rest-one of the few times I've noticed in this strip where the lack of space harms the story a bit.
ReplyDeleteThey should do a Jet Dream movie!
Please keep these coming.
Yeah, that 4-page limit gives new meaning to "Wham! Bam! Thank you, ma'am!"
ReplyDelete8 to 10 pages would've been ideal, but with the Man from U.N.C.L.E. story being 27-28 pages (and it was HIS book), there was literally no room!
Ironically, the Jet Dream one-shot comic feels a little "padded". Go figure...
Look for a new (as in never-reprinted) Jet Dream story every couple of weeks.
