A New/Old One from Stark House: FRENZY OF EVIL by Henry Kane
Here's a good-lookin' new entry in the Black Gat line from Stark House Press, originally published in 1963. I'm ashamed to admit I never got around to reading Henry Kane, or Frank Kane, either. Looks like it's time I did. Thanks once again to Greg Shephard at Stark House for keeping the classic noir flame burning.

Comic Book Story: SIR LANCELOT battles "The Ferocious Fathers" by John Buscema (1957)
Back in the Days of Yore (in this case 1956-57), William Russel starred in the British-made TV series The Adventures of Sir Lancelot (now available on cheapo DVD).
Meanwhile, John Buscema, nine years before he started churning out superhero stuff for Marvel and sixteen years before he set to work on Conan the Barbarian, was working for Dell, where both pencilled and inked this March 1957 issue of Four Color #775. In my eyes, this is at least the equal of his Conan work, much of which was inked by other hands. This ish was uploaded to the ever-surprising comicbookplus by a user known as BobR.
