Captain's Library ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "The Flash Meets Jerry Lewis" Part 1

Last Week We Saw Jerry Lewis Meet Wonder Woman...

...so now we're presenting another of his never-reprinted encounters with denizens of the DC Universe!

By "2nd page following", we mean "tomorrow", when Refrew and you, dear reader, will see what's in the ring!

E Nelson Bridwell scripted and Bob Oksner drew this meeting of The Flash and his Rogues' Gallery with the multi-media comedy icon from DC's Adventures of Jerry Lewis #112 (1969).

And, like the Wonder Woman appearance, it's decidedly non-Silver Age (or any Age) canon!

Captain's Library ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "Jerry Meets the New Wonder Woman" Conclusion

When Last We Left Our Heroine...and Jerry Lewis...

The then-non-super-powered Wonder Woman meets fan Jerry Lewis and his nephew Renfriew!

After Jerry accidentally injures her, Diana, Jerry, and Renfriew are teleported to Paradise Island to rescue her mother who has been kidnapped by Zodor the Barbarian.

Jerry, with the aid of Amazon Brawnhilde, defeats Zodor's best warrior, Bulque.

Now they must figure out how to rescue Diana's mother, Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons!

Wait!

According to the sales figures at the bottom of the last page, this book was selling 174,000 copies an issue?

DC, Marvel, Dark Horse and the others would kill for those sort of sales figures today!

Note: We originally-planned to present the never-reprinted...

..based on the lost TV series Once a Hero, but Lewis' passing has inspired (if that's the word) us to present his never-reprinted team-ups with DC Comics' icons!

Next week:

The Flash!

Captain's Library ADVENTURES OF JERRY LEWIS "Jerry Meets the New Wonder Woman" Part 1

Did you know the late Jerry Lewis was not only a comic, but a comic book?

Yes, true believer!

Plus, he met several DC Comics heroes...and a heroine!

You think it's over?
Hardly!
The weirdness continues...tomorrow!

Jerry had one of the longest-running books among the celebrity-comic book crowd.

Starring Lewis and his then-partner, The Adventures of Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis debuted in July, 1952, ran for 40 issues, and ended when the partnership did, in mid-1957.

DC kept the title going without Dino for another 84 issues until June 1971, plus one 68-page Super DC Giant! for a total of 125 books...an impressive run by anyone's standards.

During this run, Jerry encountered Superman, Batman, the Flash, and last, but not least, Wonder Woman, who was in her non-super-powered story arc that ran from 1968 to 1972.

But writer Alan Riefe, penciler Bob Oksner, and inker Tex Blaisdell decided to go a bit outside the Wonder Woman series continuity and allow Diana to return to Paradise Island...which she couldn't do at that point in the comic!

Yes, this never-reprinted tale from AoJL #117 (1970) is not Silver-Age canon!
