selegue Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 AHA!!! Detective comics #23?? Slam Bradley. Now I recognize him from the back. (thumbs u Holy Fudd! [in Two Billion A.D.: Part 1] (Sequence 11 - story , 13 pages ) Feature Story: Slam Bradley Credits: Jerry Siegel (-script), Shuster Shop (Pencils), Shuster Shop (Inks), ? (Colors), ? (Letters). Character appearances: I: Prof. Kenton, a bird-man, and an orange man; V: A flower-man (I) Genre: detective Indexer notes: Slam and Shorty go to the year 2,000,000,000 A.D. That's a Slam Bradley story? I had no idea that he had time travel / science fiction adventures. I thought he was just a hard-boiled detective. Does the genre label fit this story at all?
