This comic is by the noted golden age DC editor Whitney Ellsworth. 

Dr. Mid-Nite Thinks Fast

I try to avoid sharing golden age DC. They already had so much coverage, and so many reprints. But I love Doctor Midnight in all his forms.

So, join the Doc as he faces "Snakey" Scarlotti who is out for revenge! From All Star Comics #6, story by Charles Reizenstein with art by Sheldon Mayer.

Sheldon Moldoff (Part 2)

I know this follow up the the last Sheldon Moldoff post is a bit late, but 25 page research paper will to that. If only I could do one on comics....

To easy my stress and hopefully brighten some readers day here is some more solid DC Comics work from Moldoff.

On Scans_Daily I've posted some excerpts from Hawkman's story in All-Star Comics #6 (August-September 1941), The Justice Society Initiates Johnny Thunder.

Mr Neutron has posted excerpts pages from a reprint of Batman #165 (August 1964) starring Batman and his weirdest girlfriend, Patricia Powell. (She is the weirdest, no joke!)

Ending all this goddess is a story from All Star Comics #11 below. These are from my copy of the archive reprints. They are a must buy, if you love the JSA.

And a bonus page! Shareing this story just wouldn't be complete without this "oh, duh" Wonder Woman Moment

Sheldon Moldoff (Part 1)

Sheldon "Shelly" Moldoff died February 29, 2012 due to kidney failure.


Moldoff was one those names that was everywhere in the golden age. If you read DC from the time at all it is a legendary name.


Mark Evanier has written an excellent obituary on his blog. I feel that all I can add is love for the Sheldon Moldoff's art work.


Here you will find his art work for the characters he was best known for: Hawkman and Hawkgirl.

From All-Star Comics #7

Script Gardner Fox, Art Sheldon Moldoff

Falling in Love #4

Lost love has never been particularly romantic to me. Keep that in mind when I tell you the I found the story of Abelard and Heloise out of place in Dc's Falling in Love. Falling in Love normally sports melodramatic plots, happing endings, and female POVs (there are exceptions). Tragic love doesn't seem to eve play in to the plots in the end, so the two page side story in an oddity to me.
This comics start in 1955, but issue #4 is dated Apil 1956. It ran 143 issues, ending in November 1973. I meant to post from #1, but the collector in me can't seem to put it on the scanner. So, let's pretend #4, is golden age!...Please? Come on I have no romance comics up at all...
Check out Mike's Amazing World of DC Comics-DC Reprint Guide for more on Falling in Love reprints. Information on this comics is scare, but dccomics40 has more coverage on individual issues. For more on the history of the story see Abelard and Heloise.
