Charlton Comics Throwback
Charlton Comics Throwback
SNGPODuctions
On February 4, 2016, FKAjason and his son Vance began to review the old Charlton Comics featuring Captain Atom in their special “Throwback Thursday” episodes of the Silver and Gold Podcast. Their plan is to cover all appearances of Captain Atom before his purchase by DC Comics. The show eventually became it’s own entity, Charlton Comics Throwback where they review the aforementioned Captain Atom comics as well as other Charlton gems.
13: Peace Envoy/Blondie #214
Normally we like to release CC Throwback episodes on Thursdays. But it has been six months since our last episode so we couldn't wait!FKAjason and Vance first talk about "Peace Envoy" from Space Adventures #39. For the first time since his debut, Captain Atom is drawn by someone other than Steve Ditko! Then Jay covers Blondie #214. 1970s misogyny at its best!

12: Test-Pilot's Nightmare/Abbott & Costello #13
It is Thursday. We have two Charlton comics in front of us. How about the twelfth episode of Charlton Comics Throwback? In this episode, Vance and Jay take a look at "Test-Pilot's Nightmare" by Joe Gill and Steve Ditko, which first appeared in Space Adventures #39 (April 1961). This is a fairly non-memorable adventure of Captain Atom. Next the boys turn their attention to Abbott & Costello #13 (February 1970). The creative team for that issue was Joe Gill, Anthony Ferme, Tony Tallarico, and Sal Gentile.This episode contains the results of our special contest/giveaway. Stick around for the feedback for details.
