We're halfway to Jim Aparo's Artist Edition !

Mea culpa. Regular blog visitors may recall that I did a post with the full original artwork for issue 141 of THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD by Jim Aparo instead of writing about the content of the new Artist's Edition about Jim Aparo that - fingers crossed - is going to be released at the end of this month. And that I promised to do the post about the Artist's Edition soon.

Well, as it turns out " soon " meant five months but we're finally doing it.

Not that I haven't been busy in the meantime with three posts in tribute to Peter David and Dale Keown's run on THE INCREDIBLE HULK, four posts on Steve Mannion , a spotlight on Dale Eaglesham's JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA run which lead to an Alex Ross tribute post which in turn led to an ASTRO CITY post and a post on urban legends , followed by another post with the complete original artwork of issue 275 of CAPTAIN AMERICA by J. M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck for the 4th of July followed by a post on Dan Jurgen's run on the Superman titles , a post on Keith Giffen's run on THE LEGION OF SUPER - HEROES , two posts about a plethora of asian sexbombs I found while trying to finish up another post, one completely unexpected post on ONE PIECE and three posts on Marvel Comic's CONAN THE BARBARIAN - two on John Buscema and Ernie Chan's run and one on Barry Windsor Smith's start of the series - on which I have been working on and off. So yes, there is a reason why this post was delayed so long.

But now we're finally doing it and it's about time because as I wrote in my post on THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD 141 this is supposed to whet your appetite for the Artist Edition and we are already at the middle of the month when it's supposed to come out. And this should be a fairly quick post : just list the contents of the book, include some original artwork and finish up with my usual mix of pop culture relevant facts and funny personal anecdotes of my time as a comicbook reader back in the days when I still had a comic book collection worthy of being called such.

Easy, peasy, lemon squeezie. Right ? Wrong. For one, as longtime fans of the blog already know I have written a plethora of posts on Jim Aparo and THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD . So I don't know if I have any personal stories left to tell. And second, BECAUSE I have already written so many posts I may have posted some of the art included in the Artist Edition before. Now I went through all of my old posts to see what is redundant but because this post is supposed to highlight Jim Aparo's terrific art I have chosen the best pieces of art even if I have posted them before. Of course there will be a lot of new stuff but there are some instances where I could not find the original art or the coloured versions. Sorry.

As for the contents of the book, I'm going to list them in the numerical and alphabetical order NOT in the order they will be appear in the book.

I know for the guys of 13TH DIMENSION - I'm using their exclusive first look post as a basis - it's easier to do the second because they basically just include two photos of the content list but that made it hell for me to do the research and try to find the original pages because you have to go through the issues of THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD where they include a cover and the full story and then when you have already gone through the entire list past ADVENTURE COMICS you have to go back once again to THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD because they are including just the cover of an issue and then a third time just for one page from an issue. I've never understood why they do this - maybe they don't want to break the flow for those who are reading the full stories - where they don't have all the art from one series in one place and instead do first the full stories, then just the covers and then some random pages, posters, promos and such.

Anyway, the contents of the Artist Edition are ADVENTURE COMICS 431 ( full story ), 432 ( pages one and 9 ), 433 ( page 1 ), 434 ( cover and full story ), 435 ( cover and full story ), 437 ( full story ), 439 ( cover and first page ), 440 ( cover and full story ), 449 ( cover ), 451 ( page one ), 461 ( page 1 ), AQUAMAN 57 ( cover ), BATMAN 284 ( cover ), 293 ( cover ), 308 ( cover ), 324 ( cover ), BATMAN FAMILY 12 ( cover ), 14 ( cover ), 16 ( cover ), THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD 108 ( cover and full story ), 116 ( cover and first page ), 122 ( cover ), 124 ( cover ), 125 ( page 1 ), 126 ( cover ), 132 ( cover and full story ), 138 ( cover and full story ), 142 ( cover and first page ), 144 ( cover ), 149 ( cover and full story ), 154 ( page 1 ), 174 ( page 1 ), 187 ( cover ), 188 ( cover ), DC SPECIAL 28 ( page 1 ), DETECTIVE COMICS 443 ( cover ), 444 ( cover and pages 6 and 7 ), 445 ( cover and full story ), 448 ( cover ), 469 ( cover ), 518 ( cover ), GHOSTS 97 ( cover ), LIMITED COLLECTORS' EDITION C - 37 MAN - BAT 1 ( cover ) and last but not least the TEEN TITANS issue 36 ( pages 1 to 3 ).

So there you have it. It's an incredible amount of Jim Aparo goodness and the only thing baffling to me is that it has taken such a long time to do an Artist's Edition for Jim Aparo. As the more astute comic afficionados might have noticed there are no pages from one of my favourite - and not only my favourite Jim Aparo series or DC Comics book but - comic series of all times BATMAN AND THE OUTSIDERS in this list so I hope that's because they still plan to do a separate Artist's Edition of that material.

As I said, there are no funny or insightful stories left to tell so let's get to the rest of the original art I selected for this post and I hope it helps you bide the time until the book finally does come out. As for me the current pre - order price at amazon here in Spain is 162 EUROS so I will have to wait with buying it until it is at a more reasonable price point. Maybe I can get if for Christmas since it is already too late to be a birthday gift.

Longtime followers of the blog know that as an old geezer obsessed with blondes with XXL - sized boobs I cannot mention Paul Newman without mentioning Cool Hand Luke's star real life 41D Power Girl Joy Harmon.

The blonde Busenwunder might not be the most recognizable name in showbiz but she surely has the most recognizable breasts in Hollywood !


A regular on You Bet Your Life after Groucho Marx took a liking to her, Joy made literally hundreds of tv cameos in the 60s and 70s - including The Monkees and Batman - thanks to her 41D - 22 - 36 measurements.

She was a building - sized go - go dancer in Village of the Giants ( 1965 ) but what people remember the most about Joy Harmon is her famous car washing scene in Cool Hand Luke ( 1967 ) where she soaps up her jalopy with her own natural sponges before " putting them on the glass " which doubtless inspired Sir - Mix - Alot and entire generations of horny males.

Never underestimate the effect giant, wet boobs that are pressed tightly against glass can have on your memory. Just ask ragazza Simona Ventura.


And since such short animated GIFs - no matter how good the quality - are ill suited to adequately show the full dimensions of Miss Harmon´s over - proportionate developed talents here is the best version of it.

We have only one german dubbed episode of Mike Hammer left but we are going out with a bang because this one features as a guest star one of the main attractions of Babylon 5 - at least for the male audience - brabusting 36B - 25 - 38 science fuck - tion cult siren Claudia Christian who played Commander Susan Ivanova although I heavily doubt Claudia was allowed to wear an outfit as skimpy as the one below on that show !


Claudia wore that little number on the undeservedly underrated film The Hidden delivering a surprisingly professional and raunchy striptease that not only helped the movie gain a loyal male following over the decades based on Claudia's participation ( some people even go as far as Claudia's bonerinducing striptease is the only reason the movie is still shown on tv ) but also earned her a top spot in my TOP 10 MOVIE STRIPTEASE list .

Coming back to The Hidden, in the movie bi - sexual Claudia Christian plays a stripper which is a role Claudia was clearly born to portray !

She is taken over by a sex addicted alien parasite and the first thing the alien does with the stripper´s porn body is literally fuck a guy to death.

https://64.media.tumblr.com/64dbe5723128e5a33668e9faffb5b610/5f8e8c389020cc6d-84/s400x600/612d8f26a6c78ab6e8183882876f13dacdf96223.gifv

Which apparently she tried to re - enact with Kyle MacLachlan for a few weeks in a nearby no - tell motel where she used her relentless body and her ability to spread her legs like a fillipino hooker to pump his dick dry.

Man, Kyle really got to bang some grade a born for porn sexbombs during his career since not only deepthroat nymphomaniac Claudia Christian milked his horsecock dry until the last drop in a hidden motel. Nobody can tell me that he didn't drill all natural 38C - 22 - 35 showgirl Elizabeth Berkley without mercy during their uninhibited sex scenes in the pool .

Speaking about ultimate sexbombs on Mike Hammer, longtime readers might recall that I very often mentioned the so - called Hammerettes which are women with a breast size that would have easily gotten them a feature role in a Russ Meyer movie but so far I have not seen any of them in the german episodes and I wonder if that is just bad luck or by design to avoid the usual YouTube censorship shenanigans. In any case it's tragic because the Hammerettes were one of the distinguishing features of the show who always made the episodes that much more memorable.

One I still vividly remember was episode six from season two of Mike Hammer called Bonecrush in which a 22 year old Janine Turner played a nymphomanic ( aren´t all women in this series nymphomanic, especially the buxom Hammerettes ? ) horny sexbomb which she had no problem pulling off thanks to Janine´s bonerinducing 40C - 22 - 37 measurements.


Every normal, red - blooded guy would have done her in a minute but as always in the show since Mike Hammer knew her for such a long time he saw her more like a little sister than a born for porn sexual partner. One of Janine Turner´s breast scenes is when she tries to get Mike aroused wearing a super ventilated red shirt. That shirt had so many cleavage windows that it was basically just a lot of thin stripes which only barely covered her spectacular breasts leaving not much to the imagination.


When Janine´s character didn´t manage to get Mike aroused she was - understandably - miffed so when Mike´s only remaining friend in the police department ... at least his only male friend. As he seems to have an unlimited supply of female acquaintances willing to do whatever Mike Hammer needs them to do in the hopes of getting a big taste of ye olde patented 150 percent satisfucktion guaranteed Mike Hammer meatpole.


Like the thirsty, big breasted real life Power Girl below played by none other than PLAYBOY´s Playmate Of The Month for March in 1982, blonde 34C - 23 - 33 blow up sex doll extreme Karen Lorre formerly Witter ( you can read more about the buxom beauty in the big finale to my Hugh Hefner tribute series from 2020 ) and whom regular blog readers might remember since she appeared in a few episodes of Mike Hammer, most notably in the episode Kill Devil with her famous picture album scene.


Sexy Karen also had bit parts on Trapper John M. D., Cheers, The Vineyard, The X - Files, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, NYPD Blue and Malcolm in the Middle. She also appeared in the movie Another Chance.


From 1990 to 1994 Karen had a contract role as the 4th Tina Lord on ABC´s soap opera One Life to Live, for which she was nominated for a 1991 Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Female Newcomer in Daytime.

And to close the part about Busenwunder Karen Witter she later played Nemesis in Hercules : The Legendary Journeys, in the seventh episode.


Coming back to Janine Turner´s character, after Mike Hammer spurns her proposition to assume the position ( or more likely the positions since she intends to have sexual intercourse with Mike many positions in all night long ) Mike Hammer´s only remaining - male - friend in the police departement walks in and she blatantly asks him if his old friend Mike has some performance problems with his little Mike. Which is the only reasonable explanation for not slambanging Janine Turner´s brains out.


As my faithful readers know I am a huge fan of Northern Exposure, one of THE best tv shows that ever aired and subsequently of Janine Turner.


Sadly there are not a lot of clips from Northern Exposure on YouTube and the few I found have all been deleted. What is also difficult to come by are performances by Janine Turner where she can really show her stuff.


Another erotic highlight of her career is TAI PAN in which Janine Turner doesn´t wear only one, nor just two but at least three different dresses that show off her breast features. And when I say " show off her breast features " I mean expose her upper body completely while still managing to cover her nipples. It´s like she´s advertising motorboating and the only thing that is missing is a sign that reads " Best double breasted dick massages in town. Special offer : bring one friend and get a deepthroat blowjob for free. No age check. " I have no idea how the costume person got away with this or if it is even historically accurate and I don´t care.


Speaking of Janine Turner's mouthwatering mammaries, as far as casting her in a superhero movie - when she was in her prime of course - while it is not based on an existing comicbook she would have been perfect for the role of Majestic of the spoof series Society Of Virtue, especially if she would be wearing the original costume - which leaves nothing to the imagination so Janine could have displayed her flawless pornstar body here - instead of the prudish lame outfit Majestic gets in later episodes.


As for which episode I would adapt, it's either the one where Janine Turner gets plenty of screen time showcasing Majestic's breast costume - as well as her erection guaranteeing gazongas - from all angles or a new one. This would be a follow up to the episode called " XXX " in which the team surprises a group of actors shooting a porn movie parody of them and decide to take over to make the movie more realistic. As one might imagine this new episode would show the team actually shooting the porn movie and the main focus would - of course - be hot Janine Turner.


It goes without saying that as the director of this episode I would have insisted on rehearsing all the sex scenes before shooting and at Janine's request this would have taken place at a five star hotel at an undisclosed location as she knew that shooting a bonerinducing scene with too many people around always ended up with everybody taking turns at taming her. It's a dirty job but somebody has got to do it and I would not only have made the sacrifice to slam - bang Janine's brains out six ways - and six days - to Sunday during these gruelling sex scene rehearsal marathons I would also have taken the job of stunt cock to shield her from perverts.


As in previous posts we are having a hammer themed double feature : an episode of Mike Hammer followed by one of Sledge Hammer although I fear that this will be our last one since that was our last german dubbed Mike Hammer episode while I still have a plethora of Sledge Hammer in the german dubbing. In any case, this is a good one with Dori Doreau on a date with Adam Ant ( the older readers might remember him ) and Anne - Marie Martin is wearing one of these f - word me dresses that women wear to make sure their date is getting a huge boner. One of these black numbers where the cleavage is already a preview of the following nightly activities and where you know she is going to slam - fuck your brains out all night long and ruining you for all other women.

IF I WAS A HAMMER I'D HAMMER ANNE - MARIE MARTIN IN THE MORNING

One of the main attractions of Sledge Hammer - besides the humour and the gratuitous violence - is of course none other than longlegged Anne - Marie Martin who perfectly depicts Sgt. Dori Doreau, the hardbody of the law with legs for miles almost up to her chin, who really could've made a fortune as a real life hooker or at least working the stripper pole. We all dreamed of Anne assuming the position ( and when I say " the position " I mean of course all positions ) so we could give her a full cavity search.

The canadian blow up sex doll honed her Playmate Of The Year body as a horse riding world championship contender for the US so she is an expert breaking in wild broncos, taming horny breeding stallions ( her speciality is dicktaming two legged breeding stallions with an insatiable big third leg ), the oral preparation for natural insemination and dressage riding.


This comes in handy in my favorite episode, Model Dearest in which Dori Doreau goes undercover as a bikini model which thoroughbred stud mare Anne Marie Martin pulls off easily thanks to her bonerinducing bikinibody.


No wonder the horny sheik who " buys " Dori can't help but comment : " She will be a wife AND a mistress ! " when he sees her in all her glory.

Apropos Dori being auctioned off to become the love slave of a rich pasha, with Sledge Hammer's innate bumbling nature - remember that he almost blows her cover when he sees her model pictures at the fake model agency - I always fantasized about what would happen if Sledge would arrive too late and Dori would have been already shipped away to a future position of living party favour for the sheik's many horny guests.

Especially at the uninhibited sex orgies his business partners would be invited to where ultimate sexbombs with enticing stripper moves that would make even the most seasoned porn super stars blush performed steamy stripteases that made Salome's famous " dance of the seven veils " look like a Kindergarten dance apt for the whole family by comparison.

As a boob lover the sheik's personal harem - which is where Dori Doreau was supposed to end up - was full of exceptionally big breasted women who were pumped two times - first full of very potent illegal sex drugs and a second time by the huge monstercocks of the sheik's guests who were totally out of control ganging up on the women assaulting their holes up to four schlongs at the same time and stretching them out.


Now the reason why Sledge would come too late - no pun intended - to prevent Dori Doreau being shipped off as a penetration pleasure pet was that he and the task force he assembled stumbled upon the agency's secret underground " taming facility " also known as " Deepthroat High " where the unsuspecting models were " broken in " by the henchmen of the agency's boss ( who were the elite of the most brutal serial rapists around the world ) before getting special classes by phillipino prostitutes about how to spread their legs and milk schlongs dry until the last drop.

During their " taming period " the hapless girls were also used for " recreational purposes " by the model agency's male employees on their lunch breaks and after work who were encouraged to use this perk as often as they could since they were usually quite brutal and relentless which - according to the boss - sped up their indoctrination process.


To that end a lot of the girls where blindfolded and handcuffed to beds in a soundproof chamber so when Sledge Hammer and his fellow police men came upon these rooms with rows upon rows of beds that had naked exotic Busenwunders from every corner of the world that could easily triplicate the sales numbers of any adult magazine ( since the whole scam was to trap girls who could be Playmates Of The Year ) lying on their backs and being totally incapacitated while spreading their legs - who on top of that had just been hosed down and oiled up so they were ready to be used and abused in any which way - a few of the cops could not help themselves and started " sampling the merchandise quality ".

Of course Sledge would have none of that - although he was seriously tempted to participate in the impromptu fuck marathon when he came across a woman who looked like Dori Doreau's big - breasted younger twin only with longer legs and was so pumped up on sex drugs that she immediately started giving him a double breasted deepthroat massage.

After handcuffing her to a bed while he was on the brink of squirting like a fire hose he tried his best to prevent the cops from further using the already abused girls. But there were a lot of these rooms and he could not be everywhere at the same time so it took Sledge a while to bring things under control and by the time all the girls had been freed and put into busses that were supposed to bring them to the next police station the bad guys had already fled the country with dicktaming Dori in tow.

Although most of the cops drove them to the nearest subway underpass so nobody could hear the girls scream at the top of their lungs while the police men took turns slam - fucking the sluts senseless against the glass.

Needless to say that by this point Dori Doreau had already been gagged, hogtied and put on a freighter to the Middle East. Because the sheik was so smitten with Dori he took it upon himself to dicktame her and spent the next weeks relentlessly drilling every orifice of her body making her go through all of the positions of the Kama Sutra, the Ananga Ranga, the complete Tantra Sex Bible, Joy Of Sex and the vulcan Pon Farr guides.

Thankfully Dori Doreau had spend some time at the vice squad as bait for serial rapists and since her partners always " accidentally " arrived after the perverted perps had their way with her and she could not offer any resistance when the cops took turns sexually assaulting her for the rest of the night she managed to bear the pervert's powerful pussy pounding.

She even managed to escape by deepthroating the chef eunuch until she had successfully reversed his castration - which luckily was of a chemical instead of a surgical nature - and then slam - fucking him into a coma.


Speaking about wet sex dream Anne - Marie Martin's flawless body, there are sadly only a few episodes where she gets to spotlight it like in the pilot episode where she disarms a perp with an mindblowing high kick exposing her perfectly shaped legs or in episode 12 of the second season called Icebreaker where she has a date with Adam Ant in an incredible strapless black dress. Another one which eluded me for the longest time is one where she and Sledge go to a sauna to interrogate an informant and because of the hot steam their clothes shrink later. Especially Dori Doreau's long skirt turns into a micro skirt revealing Anne - Marie Martin's gorgeous gams. Boy, who said that she has legs for miles wasn't kidding.

But now I finally found it, it's episode 9 of the first season called Magnum Farce which is of course a spoof of the second Dirty Harry movie with Clint Eastwood titled Magnum Force and Anne - Marie Martin's short leg revealing scene is around the six minute mark.

I have mentioned Sledge Hammer - and especially canadian Sexbombe Anne - Marie Martin - a few times on the blog over the years but newer blog visitors might want to check out my Bill Ward tribute post in 2022 where you can not only find an episode of Ayer Nomas about the show but also more stuff about the Sledge Hammer comic by Marvel Comics.
