Tumblr favorite #2721: Planet Bettie
My original tumblr post was here. This image was first posted on Tumblr on The Bettie Page. The fact that there is no publication called “Planet Bettie” in the ISFDB or the Grand Comics Database, as well as the fact that there are a variety of places where you can order this as a metal sign makes me think that it’s a parody illustration, but I have been unable to find the identity of the artist.
Tumblr favorite #2720: Space costume impractical, yes, but stylish

Tumblr favorite #2717: “The big brain am winning again!”
My original tumblr post was here. This comics page was originally posted on Tumblr by Vintage Geek Culture who attributes it to Gil Kane. A minor mystery hovers around this comic, as the the Grand Comics Database does appear to have an entry for Astra: Girl of the Future, however there it is listed as a Tijuana bible. This particular page doesn’t betray any of that; the subject matter is too standard and the production values to high. It seems likely that the GCD entry is a parody of a real comic. A bit more searching, however, does turn up the story “The Mad Brain” with an Astra character in Sensation Comics #106 (1942).
