Four Color Comics v2 #1192
Ricky Nelson / Four Color Comics v2 #1192, 1961 - An actor from the 1960s tv show Ozzie and Harriet, Ricky Nelson soon became a much bigger celebrity, as evidenced in this special issue. The teen heartthrob embarks on a journey to Hong Kong, giving artist Russ Manning an opportunity to depict more exotic settings. His research is evident in the convincing details of Chinese objects, interiors and architecture. Among the many highlights: the scenic view of Victoria Harbor on page 5 (see interior page shown below) and the "Festival of the Dragons" celebration on page 16. The follow-up Manning tale is more domestic and not surprisingly, pales by comparison. This is 1 of 1 Ricky Nelson issues by Manning.
