SUMMER’S HERE! Let’s Go Surfin’ and Hot-Roddin’!

13 COVERS to celebrate the brightest day of the year…

For years, I have been promising/threatening to do a feature on hot-rod comics, a super-specific genre that speaks to a very specific time — mid-20th century America. Throw in surfing and motorsickles and what you’ve got is the perfect way to kick off the summer.

So, put on some Beach Boys, or Jan and Dean, or the Trashmen, or Dick Dale, or the Surfaris, and dig these 13 COVERS, Daddy-o!
