Sunday comics!

 

Just wanted to share this with you all. Its a comic series from the 50's! Its called "The Vault of Horror", created by William Gaines and Al Feldstein and only ran for 29 issues. Together they created "Tales from the Crypt", "The Vault of Horror", and "The Haunt of Fear". The target audience for this comic were GIs returning from WWII, who were in search of more intense genres as opposed to crime fighters, and masked villains.  Here are a few examples of some of the covers:

Anyone heard of Miss Fury?

She's the first female superhero created and drawn by a woman in the 1940's. She was originally named Black Fury whose alter ego was Marla Drake. The Miss Fury character was loosely based her creator, June Tarpé Mills, who used her middle name to conceal her gender. We love Miss Fury! She shows us you don't need superpowers to fight crime.

Pantone color of the year

Suddenly.... a burst of ORANGE! Everywhere you go it calls your attention . . .

Flipping through magazines and shopping around town we've noticed, orange is all the rage. Looking at Pantone's website I found out the color of the year is called Tangerine Tango! Pantone comes up with a new color every year and this year it's: Pantone 17-1463 . We all see and interpret color differently, so Pantone company has made a standardized way for communicating color accurately across many types of industries. So go out in style with a little Tangerine in your outfit!
