DOCTOR DAN DAZZLER "Open and Shut Case!"

Let's return to the adventures of the "interne" who changes appearance with every story!

...and take note of the decidedly-different art style on this story by a "guest" artist!



What you've just read is the first of two never-reprinted Doctor Dan Dazzler stories penciled and inked by Gene Colan from Dell's Ben Casey Comics #6 (1963)!
He also did a couple of one-page fillers about real-life doctors!
You'll see those (and the other Dan Dazzler story) soon!

DOCTOR DAN DAZZLER "Deadly Playmates"

It's fascinating to see what, in the 1960s...

..."internes" had to do, including, serving as "physician-on-duty" when a circus comes to town!



Actually, I believe the esteemed interne is royally-pissed in this never-reprinted story, illustrated by John Tartaglione from Dell's Ben Casey #5 (1963)

Sensation Comics DR PAT "Carnival of Doom!"

Have no fear...Dr Pat is here!
And this never-reprinted tale from DC's Sensation Comics #103 (1951) shows why...and it ain't just her medical acumen!
Considering the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel features multiple series about freelance female sleuths whose main gigs are everything from bookstore owners to matchmakers to talk show hosts to Post Office workers, why don't they have a woman doctor who solves crimes in her spare time?
I'd suggest adapting Dr Pat into a series, either as a 1950s period piece or a contemporary-set show featuring the latest in medical technology at her disposal!

Sensation Comics DR PAT "Circus Queen Mystery!"

First-rate physician!
Fantastic felon-fighter!
And now...an amazing animal tamer!
Is there anything beyond Dr Pat Windsor's many talents?
Closing out Women's History Month, this never-reprinted tale by scripter Robert Kanigher, penciler Carmine Infantino and inker Frank Giacoia from DC's Sensation Comics #102 (1951) spotlights Dr Windsor's knowledge of toxins and cures...along with her resourcefulness and bravery.
Why she never reappeared in new stories set in the DC Universe after her strip ended is beyond me!
(For the record, her first two tales were reprinted in DC's Lois Lane in the early 1970s [50 years ago], but the vast majority of her stories haven't been published anywhere in 70 years!)
