"This magazine-format title bills itself as “illustrated adult fantasy,” which here translates as “porn with a science-fiction theme” or “Hey! If I set this in the future or another planet, I can cram in any amount of rape, torture, bestiality, cannibalism and compliant robot women, and claim it’s daring and progressive fantasy.” This really is a foul series, reeking with hatred and resentment for women and sex—and apparently convinced that these attitudes are normal and universal. Let’s take “Little Beaver” in #26 as an example. A group of men take a pubescent girl, place a bomb inside her vagina, and send her to the enemy in the expectation that she will be raped by the commanding officer, thus triggering the bomb. And the style of the artwork (and previous “Little Beaver” stories) leave you in no doubt that this is intended to titillate, which is deeply frightening. Presumably there are men who can read this comic without feeling ashamed to be male, but one wouldn’t care to meet them. Admittedly, not all of the comic is that extreme, and many stories aren’t porn at all, though they’re all weak and poorly told. In the whole series, there’s only one story genuinely worth reading, “The Missionary” by Carlos Gimenez in #15, which makes a good point about the fixation on pain and suffering in certain aspects of Christianity. Are there other reasons for opening any of these issues? Well, if you must, there’s artwork by Alex Niño (every issue), Richard Corben (#1–8) and Frank Thorne (#7–29)."~FC

I can't say I don't agree with that review but since this shop is dedicated to the "Neglected Collector" Who am I to judge someone trying to complete their collection of sleaze and smut.

IMPORTANT NOTE on the quality of printing of most Warren Magazines: There's really not much. Jim Warren basically used the cheapest materials, paper, cover stock and ink he could find. And I understand he didn't pay the creators who worked for him any better. Be that as it may, please understand how difficult it is to find a perfectly clean or pristine copy of most Warren mags. I used to sell these magazines in my shop in the 70's and 80's straight from the printers and they were often bent, creased, warped upon delivery. The ink is really bad and it was virtually impossible to touch, read or only thumb thru one of these magazines without smearing the ink or leaving fingerprints on the cover. BE AWARE these issues being offered are pretty darn good for vintage Warren mags. But they usually have some smudge, crease or tell-tale sign of being a printed by Warren. PLEASE refer to images carefully and if you have any additional questions contact me.

▲ LIKE NEW VG+/-FINE CONDITION, with the usual surface wear & slight rubbing to covers from book being handled, read and stored.

▲ Please refer to scanned images- they are accurate and have not been edited or corrected and, as always, are worth at least a thousand words.
