Russian Children's Magazine: Komsomol " Veselye Kartinki " (1964) (part 2)
Part two of my post about this 1964 Russian children's magazine. Today I want to share a great comic strip that was in this issue. It reminds me a great deal of Tin Tin but is even more of a fantasy adventure.
Who knew that the Russians sent both kids and dogs into space?
There is something illogical about what the boy is doing but I can't quite put my finger on it....
Another triumph for the Soviet space program. I do wonder a little about the parachute return that leaves the rocket sitting upside down in the ground on its point. Oh well, last of this magazine in the next posting.
John, thank for this magazine. I showed it to my son. It's funny story.
