Cover from General Electric educational comic book from 1957
In the 1950-60s, General Electric published Adventures in Science, a series of comic books that ignited a love of science and engineering in a new generation. Now, GE is bringing this spirit back to life on, Wattpad, the social network for stories. Wattpad has invited six of the app’s most popular writers to author a science-fiction story inspired by the six old-school comic book covers GE dug up from decades ago. The stories will be released exclusively on Wattpad this October and are based on the real work of GE scientists.
This is such a goofy, cool, and intriguing idea. It will definitely be interesting to see what stories result from this project. Take a look at Wattpad and you’ll see how you can also take part in a wide variety of writing contests and connect to a most compelling community of people just like you, seeking to express their creativity and celebrate imagination: the world of readers and writers.
These are incredible! I LOVE comic books especially retro ones which I can collect and keep for a long time. I am definitely going to be checking these out. Thank you for bringing it to my attention! P.s. Awesome blog you have!
Thanks for your kind words. It’s interesting as to how many curious items we can find hiding in attics and such places.
It really is! You can find so many hidden treasures!
