Rocket Blast From The Past!


Rocket Black Special #1! I remember it well, not from actually having a copy of this fanzine featuring a dynamic cover with Marvel's Human Torch, Captain America, and Sub-Mariner by super-fan publisher Buddy Saunders.


I remember it from the ads which appeared in early Marvel Comics. I always wanted one, but never  got the gumption to order one.


The cover of the fanzine is a reworking of this cover for All Winners #6 minus the three heads of Mussolini, Hitler and Tojo. Bucky and Toro get dropped out too of this image which was not of the Invaders of course, too early. These are just Timely's powerhouse heroes.

Rip Off

  1. I wonder why All Winners #6 didn't use the head of Emperor Hirohito?

  2. Rocket Black Special? Too much vinegar on your chips again, Rip?
