The Beatles Gold Key Comic (1968)

While we had a great reaction to our posting of the Beatles, Ramones, Rolling Stones and Dead Kennedys comics (see HERE), MRML is not planing on becoming a 'scan blog'. However, thanks to Big Scott we've received an avalanche of rock n' roll comics, including yet ANOTHER Beatles comic.

This 1968 Gold Key comics adaptation of the camp Yellow Submarine movie is done by  a team of lesser know comic book figures, namely Paul Newman, scripter, Jose Delbo, penciller, and Jose Delbo, inker. Expect Blue Meanies, kitschy G-rated psychedelia and a dose of nostalgia - real or imagined!

The Beatles Story (Comic, 1978)

While we had a great reaction to our posting of the Ramones, The Rolling Stones and the Dead Kennedys comic (see HERE), MRML is not planing on becoming a 'scan blog'. However, thanks to Big Scott we've received an avalanche of rock n' roll comics, including the Marvel Super Special Number 4: The  Beatles Story.

The text is by the rock-critic-turned-comic-wrtiter David Anthony Kraft and the art is by future comic industry titan, George Perez. It's an entertaining, if unauthorized, biography of the band and is NOT to be confused with Marvel Super Special Number 7, which attempted to adapt the cinematic nightmare that was Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to so little avail that it was quickly withdrawn. (Anyone who has a copy of THAT is asked to contact me forthwith).

MRML Readers,
