I posted this over in the greytone Silver Age thread, but maybe Big Town is a short bus title.

Radio (originally starring Edward G. Robinson) then TV show about a big-city newspaper. The DC title ran 50 issues, and since it was a licensed property, will probably never be reprinted.

 

Dan Barry did a lot of the artwork. This is a Gil Kane/ Jack Adler (of course) cover.

 

My cost? $1.75 in about vg+.

God bless the high-grade collectors who sneer at copies like this, keeping the prices down for the rest of us.

As long as VG books and Dell's cost roughly the same as a new book I'm a happy camper.

 

 

Same here.

 

 

Here are 3 Stanhall books that can take the short bus.

 

It's so nice when big brother will ride with his sister on the short bus.

These are actually not too common.....who watched the show....come on admit your age.

 

well before my time.............

 

I certainly remember watching it on Captain Kangaroo! Crabby Appleton, Isotope Feeny.

He was a shape-changing superhero!

 

In fact, the theme song flashed into my head as soon as I saw the cover.

"I'm Tom Terrific

The greatest hero ever

Terrific is the name for me

'Cause I'm so clever..."

could be a rap song with all the bragging
