Lists That Make Cents: My Top 10 Favorite Good Girl Covers – With Some Honorable Mentions!

There is no doubt that sex sells. For decades, pinup calendars, models, music, television, movies, commercial advertising, and clothes have gotten skimpier all on the premise that this will increase sales.

Lists That Make Cents: Top 10 Most Violent Comic Covers

For years, my biggest comic collecting regret has been that I didn’t know or understand how amazing Pre-Code Horror and Crime books were when I was younger. I am not a horror movie junkie. In fact, violent images make me turn green and I don’t handle graphic horror movies well. However, for some reason, if […]
