Welcome to the special third anniversary issue of Pure Excitement Comics, the Web's longest running Golden Age reprint fanzine! In honor this occasion, I am featuring five stories this month, starring a variety of characters in a few different genres. Kicking off the issue is a very special story. It's a sequel of sorts to a story featured in the very first issue of Pure Excitement Comics, and I am very excited to be presenting it now. The images for that story are a little bit bigger than usual, so please be patient if the load times are a little longer. Here is what's featured this issue:
