This issue of ‘Man’s Action’ has got something for everyone – from “Confessions of a Teen-Age White Slaver” to “The Nude Cat Women of France.” July 1962 issue. The most ridiculous story doesn’t even merit a cover blurb (see the next picture in my phtostream).

Consider Deputy Dawg (top) a warm-up. Now, if you remember Hector Heathcote (bottom), you're on the verge of a check-plus. For a check-plus-plus, what's the name of the elephant in the middle? (NO Googling!) New Terry-Toons TV Time - Issue No. 1, October 1962.

Adventure magazines like anything else change with the times, and so too the menace. With the dawn of the 60's, America had a new enemy, and he was much closer to home than most of the previous perils. Incidentally, he sported a beard and liked to smoke cigars. Man To Man - March 1962 issue.
