Synopsis |
Continuing from last issue… The Challengers meet for the last time at the graves of Prof Haley and June Robbins, then walk away... Ace Morgan rents a loft from a “strange man” (Doctor Strange) in Greenwich Village. He practices magic, getting better, until Doctor Fate swoops in and tells him to knock it off… Rocky sticks in Challengerville, drinking, until a producer asks if he’d like to make movies. “Why not?” Rocky makes trashy action hits (including Reid Fleming, World's Toughest Milk Man). Yet he mopes for the old days. Then, of all people, the mysterious Corinna Stark walks into his hotel room. (Corinna was last seen in their 1970 occult adventures in COTU 75!)… Red Ryan drifts across the country and fetches up in Gotham City. Buying a pistol, he becomes a self-appointed vigilante blowing away street punks and muggers… While Harold Moffet, sleaze reporter, notes that incidents of crazy violence are popping up all over the country… Continued… |

Notes |
The title is a spin on "Days of Our Lives", a popular soap opera.
If you watch the logo, the hourglass loses more sand every issue as "time runs out".
Ace rents a house from Doctor Strange and meets Wong, his housekeeper.
One of Rocky's movies is "Reid Fleming, World's Toughest Milk Man".
