That last clue was the key. Way to go Twistty.

I think Jerry tried to give Bill Finger a lot more credit for creating Batman back in 1965. And both Bill and Jerry had speculated that Bob Wood was the artist responsible for the early Batman stories. Bob Kane wrote Bill and Jerry a rebuttal letter which didn't concede anything and he didn't use steroids either.

The supporting characters overwhelmed the Silver Streak. Iron Jaw, Claw, Captain Battle and Daredevil are all better known than SS and Meteor or displaced them as the lead story. Batman and Superman managed to keep their supporting characters under control. Although the Joker seems to have a life of his own.

I am still fond of this Silver Streak cover that I picked up from RyanH.

The other characters in Silver Streak were pretty interesting.

I really like Cole's work. He was a real cartoonist. He could tell a story in words and pictures that were really dynamic. I wish he had done a regular Sunday strip where he could really highlight all of that creativity. But we will have to be happy with his Plasticman stories and that precode horror.

Biro's buddy, Bob Wood, used his name in this Presto Martin story from Silver Streak. Biro seemed to be doomed right from the start.

I really like Guardineer's art. It seems art deco to me. His westerns and crime comics are especially strange looking. Some artists, like Fuje, did more realistic art when the genre changed but he continued the same style. But I prefer that early science fiction art that he performed with Dan Hastings.

You can listen to a sample show here - Stage To Calvaydos (thumbs u Thanks Scrooge. Now I am sure that I have heard the radio show. And I need to buy some Shredded Wheat for breakfast...

Those Gerber covers are great. The Weird Fantasy cover by Feldstein is one of my favorites. bb The aliens are as bizarre as the characters in District 9.

I still prefer Janet Leigh and I liked the movie. Lots of merchandise was released to take advantage of the strip and movie. Games, toys and puzzles and etc.

I wonder if Cole knew about this Harold Gray cover?

LB covers get a lot of attention thanks to CBM..and his terrific art. BZ, I think your fans want to see those near mint treasures that you store in your basement. My junkie comics may look good in the scan but many of them have received a photoshop treatment. This one has a little damage on the spine which was deleted. Purchased from the back of a pickup truck at the flea market. Thanks whoever. The Palais cover in the previous post was from a comic that was displayed on the wall in a Baltimore comic shop. Thanks Jake. The Catman 20 was purchased from TomG. Thanks Tom.

Great comics, BB. I'd forgotten Schomburg had done some of the covers. Schomburg's Catman cover doesn't get the attention that LB Cole covers do but his Terrific and Suspense covers get raves.

Quinlan did some really nice work on Catman. Palais did a lot of work too but I prefer his horror and crime stories. Schomburg did at least one or two other covers for Continental but most of his best work was for Timely and Nedor.

I sold a few Catman issues that I had but still holding on to these.

And I think Stoner's Blue Beetle cover was forgotten.

I think that a few of my favorites have already been posted but I did get a chuckle out of this Sunday page.

That is so weird. I didn't think that plane from Action 18 was real. I think Scrooge posted a comic with a drawing of a German bomber that I could never identify. And another fighter (the Reliant pictured below) which I didn't think was a real WWII aircraft but it was actually fairly well known for its role in the Battle of Britain (and pictured in Wings 2).

I like this splash from the back-up story in Superman 53. Looks tough on Lois but the eye is watching.

I like some of those Detective stories more than Batman comics. This looks like Batman on Broadway and it is also a Joker story. Nice cover too. I need another copy of that cover. Without the corner missing please.

Here are a couple of Batman comics that need a cover.

I don't have a Cap 15 CF but that is a great cover. Someone posted this one a while back but forgot who.

Nice! Other than the CDNP 24 and CDNP 33, that's my favorite cover. My local buddy has the Church copy, and it's something to behold. I have that electric chair cover and I want 24 and 33 but I like these too.

I like these Catwoman splash pages from Batman 35 and 45
