'FAMOUS FIRSTS': THE DEBUT OF X-RAY SPECS...


Copyright REBELLION

Remember those X-RAY SPECS advertised in U.S. superhero comicbooks in the '60s?  I bought a pair a few years ago - and they were utterly duff!  I wonder though, if they were the inspiration for the character of the same name from MONSTER FUN #1, published back in 1975.

Anyway, here's Ray's first appearance from that very issue for your enjoyment and appreciation.

    Trust me, JP, you'd have been disappointed - even as a kid.
