  1. Captain Daring looks like a young Evan Lewis.

  3. Okay, but seriously --that mysterious island priestess looks awfully familiar. Is that a swipe or did somebody else swipe it for a famous cover of Spider-Man or something? No really --I've seen it somewhere before. Frazetta?

  4. The priestess looks like a generic exotic dancer. I would not be surprised if it was a swipe from a movie poster. Maybe Dorothy Lamour in a tropical adventure (or a Hope & Crosby "Road" comedy), Maria Montez in an Arabian Nights movie, or maybe Hedy Lamarr in "Samson and Delilah."

  5. She reminded me of that green babe in the first episode of Star Trek, but I know what you mean, Richard. The pose is familiar too.
