The Weekender

Set in the immediate postwar era, The Weekender was a short-lived, seven-issue comic from Rucker Publications Ltd. that ran from 1945 to 1946. Anchored by the artwork of Charles Sultan, George Tuska, and Mac Raboy, the series offered a mix of adventure and escapist fantasy typical of the period. Though its run was brief, it stands as a snapshot of the transitional moment when wartime themes gave way to lighter, more whimsical storytelling in the comic book medium.
