CoronaVirus Comics ALICE MATHESON "Day Z: Chapter 1: the Emergency"

We Have Already Seen...

...Alice Matheson is a nurse with a difference!

She's an "Angel of Death" who sends terminally-ill patients to their rest...without their consent or even their next-of-kin's knowledge!

But Alice Cross, her latest "patient" refuses to rest in peace, re-animating after receiving a deliberately-fatal overdose!

And she's not the only one...

The unique aspect of this particular "zombue apocalypse" series (originally-published in France) is the emphasis on how medical personnel react to the situation, rather than the usual "average citizen".

Do the medicos do any better?

CoronaVirus Comics IRON ACE "Leper"

You'd think if an aircraft pilot is called "Iron Ace", it would be meant metaphorically!

Not in this guy's case!

And the villain of this tale is called "The Leper"!

Guess why?

Illustrated by Bill Fraccio, this never-reprinted (and extremely-racist) tale from Hillman's Air Fighters Comics #12 (1943) features the only appearance of that publisher's "Leper" character.

Trivia: the CrimeBuster strip in Lev Gleason's Boy Comics had featured a different Axis character  (a German) the year before, also called "The Leper"!
However, he wasn't diseased and his name was merely symbolic.

Both were one-shot baddies.

CoronaVirus Comics YARKO THE GREAT "Curse of Hegate"

An unusual tale combining mysticism and medicine...

...featuring one of the most obscure magic heroes of all!

Written and illustrated by the book's editor Joe Simon, this never-reprinted story from Fox's WonderWorld Comics #14 (1940) features the casual racism against blacks prevalent in America until the 1960s.

CoronaVirus Comics DR NEMESIS "Blood-Bank Massacres!"

During World War II, superheroes entered the fray against biological warfare...

...as shown in this story about a doctor turned costumed hero that, due to both graphic gruesomeness and extreme racism, almost redefines "Not Safe For Work"!

Written by longtime pulp (and later paperback) scribe Robert Turner and illustrated by Earl Da Voren, this never-reprinted tale from Ace's Super-Mystery Comics V1N01 (1944) displays the classic propaganda tropes that, unfortunately, endured in the impressionable minds of those who read them long after the war ended!

Trivia: This was Doctor Nemesis' final appearance.

Since the name's trademark had elapsed decades earlier and his original appearances had become Public Domain, Marvel Comics revived and revised the character in the early 1990s.

(Marvel has a tendency to take Golden Age names from defunct companies' characters and reuse them...including Captain Marvel, Daredevil, and Ghost Rider!)

Doctor Nemesis was one of the few superheroes named "Doctor" who was an actual practicing MD!

Others included Dr Mid-Nite (even though he was legally-blind) and Doc Savage!
