JET DREAM AND TING-A-LING

 From one of their MAN FROM UNCLE backup strips...

VOODA

 The short-lived jungle queen "Vooda" had a schizophenic origin. First, she started out as a reworked version of the unsuccessful heroine of the comic SOUTH SEA GIRL, given the name "El'Nee"in VOODOO #2 (1952), though the South Seas setting seems to been abandoned for an African one.

Then, when the Comics Code came in, Ajax-Farrell couldn't keep using the name VOODOO on one of their horror-anthologies, and so for three issues, which probably served to burn off inventory, the comic changed to VOODA in 1955, which became the new name of El'Nee. FWIW, Vooda was a little more of a fighter than either of the earlier versions, though attentive readers will notice in the second page below that Vooda was clearly clutching a knife that got erased to please Code restrictions. Her opponent's club also disappears in one panel and re-appears in the next.

CONNIE AND RUPY

 The forgettable boxing strip "Kayo Ward" starts off a story in PEP #9 with what may just be a symbolic image of conflict between hero's girlfriend "Connie" and "Rupy Levez" (a lame parody of film-star Lupe Velez).

No boxing gloves in the story proper, but at least there's one punchout.

LILY BELLE

I'm not going to explain why the Southern belle named Lily bounces a book off her daddy's dome, but it's in ANDY COMICS #21 (1948), featuring art by Archie-penciler Al Hartley.  

SUPERTEEN AND HER ALTER EGOS

 

Super-competent Betty as superheroine...

As secret agent...

And as regular "liberated girl."

MISS BIKINI LUV

 To the extent that even old-timers remember Charlton Comic's humor comic GO-GO-- a title so square that it made DC's contemporaneous TEEN TITANS look like the height of hipness-- those ancients probably just remember the book's cover-featured attempt at sex appeal, dumb blonde "Bikini Luv." Not a tuff girl at all, she dabbled just once in judo for the sake of a movie role.
