Russkie-Smashers / Chi-Com Crushers LARS OF MARS "Terror Weapon" Part 1

...they just return in the next issue working for different Commies, as the guy who doesn't just play a Martian on TV, but is a Martian playing an actor playing a Martian on TV while fighting crime in real life (got that?) discovers...
As Lars escapes one threat, he's about to run headlong into another...
Will Lars Stop Raskov?
Will Raskov Stop and/or Kill Lars?
Be Here Next Monday for the Astounding Conclusion!
You'll note the Communist Chinese were illustrated in a non-cartoony manner, unlike the overly-caricatured Japanese in most World War II comics and animated cartoons!
(The unfortunate lemon-yellow skin-tone wasn't artist Murphy Anderson's choice, I'm sure.)
Written by Jerry Siegel, illustrated by Murphy Anderson, this was the cover-featured tale from Ziff-Davis' Lars of Mars #11 (1951), the second (and last issue) of the series!
