The first time in my life that I've been reading such a good comic book! :)Very good stories from the '40s and so useful to learn a bunch of new English vocabulary!Totally loving this "mighty" character! :D Sono davvero contenta di essere approdata su questi fumetti targati 1940! Leggendoli ci si ...
There are two goofy periods for World's Finest Comics: The late fifties/early sixties, where they just had whacked-out stories and one-shot bad guys, and the late sixties, when editors in their late fifties were attempting to write hip and relevant storylines. Luckily, most of the tales reprinted in...
Dial H for Hero was one of the most original comic series out there, but never really hit its stride until the most recent incarnation, as Dial H, a Morrison-esque title in DC Comics' "New 52" failure. I've had a soft spot in my head for it every since I picked up House of Mystery #161 at a yard sal...
It's hard to go wrong with 500-pages of early Silver Age comics for $9.99. Showcase Presents Superman features the Man of Steel in some of his earliest silver age adventures, beginning with Action Comics #241 and Superman #122, and feature the introduction of many Superman Family staples: Supergirl,...

This did not turn out as I have planned.First of all the illustrations suck. Bigtime. But keep in mind th...
Old Batman bores me.. I read the first few stories and skimmed the rest. Interesting to see where some of the trophies came from but it's just kind of dull and repetitive...
The selection contained within is a bit old, so the dialogue and such is a bit dated. I liked the second to last issue in here, as it was a story told from the Scarecrow's perspective. Otherwise this is a pretty OKAY selection of Batman comics, as far as I know...
I'm not going to lie. The main reason I picked this volume up was because it features the first appearance and origin of the Composite Superman, one of my all time favorite cheesy Silver Age villains. Come on! He's Superman on one side, Batman on the other, has green skin and the powers of the en...
Showcase presents World's Finest contains lots of Superman/Batman team ups from the 1950's. They're clearly geared toward younger readers but still good for a chuckle in a Mystery Science Theatre kind of way. It's funny how many of the stories involve both Superman and Batman lying to Lois Lane.Hal...
