BHOC: INVADERS #38
INVADERS was a series on a downward slope, and much closer to cancellation that I realized as a regular reader. I could tell that something was off about the book, but I was so invested in the Golden Age as a concept and in the formative versions of these characters, like the Justice Society of America over at DC, that I never allowed it to puncture my enthusiasm for the series. INVADERS was a…

BHOC: INVADERS #37
Picked up this next issue of INVADERS when it put in an appearance at the 7-11 which was my regular Thursday destination spot for new comic books. The title was still a favorite even though it wasn’t at its best any longer, a situation that would continue until its eventual demise in only a couple short months. This particular issue wrapped up a three-part epic guest-starring the Liberty Legion,…

To the AO3 hackers I say this:
Smut!
Give me smut and nothing but!
A dirty novel I can′t shut
If it's uncut And unsubt- le
I′ve never quibbled If it was ribald
I would devour
where others merely nibbled
As the judge remarked
the day that he
Acquitted my Aunt Hortense
"To be smut It must be ut- Terly without redeeming social importance."
Por- Nographic pictures I adore
Indecent magazines galore
I like them more If they're hard core
(Bring on the obscene movies,
murals, postcards, neckties
Samplers, stained-glass windows, tattoos, anything!
More, more, I′m still not satisfied!)
Stories of tortures
Used by debauchers
Lurid, licentious, and vile
Make me smile
Novels that pander
To my taste for candor
Give me a pleasure sublime
(Let's face it, I love slime.)
All books can be indecent books
Though recent books are bolder
For filth (I′m glad to say) is in
The mind of the beholder
When correctly viewed
Everything is lewd
(I could tell you things about Peter Pan And the Wizard of Oz, there's a dirty old man!)
I thrill To any book like Fanny Hill
And I suppose I always will If it is swill And really fil Thy
Who needs a hobby like tennis or philately?
I've got a hobby: rereading Lady Chatterley
But now they′re trying to take it all
Away from us unless
We take a stand, and hand in hand
We fight for freedom of the press
In other words Smut! (I love it)
Ah, the adventures of a slut
Oh, I′m a market they can't glut
I don′t know what
Compares with smut
Hip hip hooray!
Let's hear it for the Supreme Court!
Don′t let them take it away!
