UnRested Spectre Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Just picked this up from a Boardie...should be here this week... Hiyo! Who is this guy? I have been seeing this issue on different threads and its great looking and a nice pick-up, but who is the guy? I know of the other characters from this Golden Age publication, but I have yet to identify this dude! Who is? What is his power? He reminds me of Black Terror and has a touch of the Fighting Yank look... except he is in purple with the crossbones symbol. P.S. Yes, I am one of those readers who has recently jumped on the band-wagon of trying to learn all I can and maybe acquire some of the Golden Age comics from the Golden Age publications of the super-hero characters depicted in the new series by Dynamite Entertainment Comics... Project Superpowers, Black Terror, and soon to be releases of Death-Defying Devil and Masquerade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a difference between Black Terror's sidekick, because I see two versions of the, supposed, same kid... one depicts as a blonde and the other a dark-haired young lad?

Gone Phishin' Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I know that there is a difference between how many copies printed, and how many survived, but around how many copies were printed for each Nedor book throughout the 40's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primetime Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I'm not sure, but I would imagine lower print runs than DC and Timely. Nedor was a smaller company. I am sure Nearmint, Bedrock, or Gator can expand on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttock Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I know that there is a difference between how many copies printed, and how many survived, but around how many copies were printed for each Nedor book throughout the 40's? Looking through the Heritage archive & Metro's inventory of scanned books, I found the following numbers on the Mile Highs (which are thought to indicate the number of each book ordered) Startling 25 - 4 Exciting 15 - 6 17 - 4 23 - 8 26 - 8 28 - 6 Fighting Yank 4 - 2 10 - 1 The rest were uncoded. The conclusions I draw would be (a) the data set is too small (b) that being said, the numbers in general aren't far off from DC & Timely from the same era © the numbers support a scarcity of Fighting Yank, but contradict a scarcity of late 20s-early 30s Excitings. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearmint Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Beyond print run, there's also how well Nedors were distributed to consider. Looking at the titles present in the Reilly collection, I refuse to believe that he wouldn't have collected Nedors if they were available to him. Their absence leaves me to believe they weren't distributed in his area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLBcomics-migration Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 and here is another Standard, and am wondering what the consensus might be whether it is Schomburg as well. Sure looks like it to me, but was unsigned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
