Dr. Fate

Dr. Fate

So, weird useless fact about me: I own almost every issue of a published (solo) comic (reprint or otherwise) of Swamp Thing, Dr. Fate, and The Spectre. I am however missing Golden Age appearances of Fate & Spectre, which have been reprinted as DC Archive Editions. Which are also out of print and hard to …

22. Green Lantern

22. Green Lantern

So, to counter yesterday’s piece, here’s Alan Scott, the Golden Age Green Lantern. He’s a character I have a deep fondness for who has been presented as hetero for nearly 70-80 years.

1182. Black Panther

Hey did you know there was a Golden Age character called Black Panther? You do now.

1181. War Eagle

1181. War Eagle

Absolutely the most ridiculous Golden Age superhero I’ve ever seen or heard of. Look him up, it’s a doozy.

725. Stardust, The Super Wizard

725. Stardust, The Super Wizard

My local comic shop has a giant hardcover collection of Fletcher Hanks’ works that I keep eyeing. It’s incredibly tempting to buy & read and delve into not only the “making shit up as we go”-ness of his stories, but sheer and utter insanity – like, possibly legitimate, medical insanity.
