Highlight of the WDW trip for me was hanging at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant and watching all the snippets from the “classics” while dining with the fam.
Thought I’d jump into @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social ‘s #TopShelfFriday a bit early with a recent acquisition. This Boris Villejo cover might be at the top of the Savage Sword mag run for some. What I do know is that it took me longer to land a decent copy of this fifth issue than it did my #1. ⚔️

Day 13: Favorite “b” film noir.
“Sims. Homicide. Because murder is my business. And midnight is my beat.”-Det. Lt. Sims (Sterling Hayden from the trailer.)
Love the grit in this one and the on location shots in L.A.

Ascenseur pour l'échafaud (Elevator to the Gallows) 1958.

Today’s watch: “G” is for “Gun Crazy” (1950). Not going to get much more certifiably “off her rocker” femme fatale-ish than Annie Laurie Star (Peggy Cummins). OK, Anne Savage in Detour,but considering Annie’s aim, well….
And for the record, one of the best noir posters!
