Remembering Artist Bob Oksner

Remembering artist Bob Oksner on his birthday (October 14, 1915 - February 18, 2007) with a couple of his covers featuring a Mummy....and, though Bob worked on both the Adventures of Bob Hope and the Adventures of Jerry Lewis comics, it seems a shame Bob and Jerry never had a cross over!

Covers from Adventures of Bob Hope #98 (April-May, 1966) and Adventures of Jerry Lewis #94 (May-June, 1966).

Caveman Bob Hope

Just a couple of covers featuring funny man, Bob Hope...

...as a caveman.

Adventures Of Bob Hope #43 (February-March, 1957) with art by Owen Fitzgerald and Graham Price, has Bob making time with a prehistoric hottie....and Adventures Of Bob Hope #88 (August-September, 1964) with art by Bob Oksner, shows Bob on the run, likely because of the trouble he always finds himself in! 

Remembering Bob Hope

Remembering British-American comedian Bob Hope (May 29, 1903 to July 27, 2003) on his birthday.

Bob Hope was famous for his vaudeville routines, his road movies with Bing Crosby, and his legendary tours for the USO to entertain the troops.

But, did you know...

...he had a 109 issue comic book series at DC Comics from February-March 1950 to February-March 1968?



The earliest covers were photo covers!

That changed to covers by Owen Fitzgerald

Later covers by Mort Drucker

Then covers by Bob Oksner

Even covers by Neal Adams!

We do remember, and Bob....thanks for the memories!
