I met Sheldon Moldoff at a late 90s con, was excited to commission a Hawkman drawing as a gift for my beloved big bro. The brief was “Hawkman battling an idol come to life” and here’s the result! I think he charged $60 🤯

Cover for Star-Spangled Comics #61, October 1946, 10¢. The Newsboy Legion, a group of four adolescent boys, shares the basket of a red hot air balloon with their adult superhero sidekick, the Guardian, who has blue tights with gold helmet and shield. A sign on the balloon reads “SUICIDE SLUM CROSS COUNTRY BALLOON RACE SPONSORED BY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE”

I’ve been entering my golden age books in #clz - I don’t have a ton but I love the ones I do have. Very fond of this cover, by Curt Swan and Stan Kaye in a very Simon/Kirbyesque manner.

Working on books from two different decades today — a 1940s Golden Age classic and Avengers #1 (1963).
Books like these are why experience matters.

Tarzan parody Zartan grabs the mic from Billy and proclaims his intention to abandon the jungle for city life
Parodies of Batman and Robin, Flash Gordon, and Dick Tracy go on strike. Captain Marvel tries to stop them, but because they’re all heroes, he refuses to fight them - so they just walk over him as they descend the staira
Little orphan Annie parody gives a very long winded explanation for her reasons to strike
The final story in CMA 22 is a right wing take on labor; comic characters go on strike and Cap makes them go back to work. Some crude but amusing takes on Tarzan, Dick Tracy, Little Orphan Annie, Flash Gordon, etc

Captain Nazi howls with Pain when Captain Marvel slams his fingers with the lid of a chest. Then two goons shoot him in the face, which just amuses Captain Marvel.
The humor of these stories is what really grabbed me. Just great.

Opening two page spread of the monster Society of Evil chapter 1 shows Captain Marvel in giant size, standing over a cloud-bedecked earth with a gang of his old enemies approaching from beyond the moon
Here’s how the MSE serial starts, a gorgeous spread by the great CC Beck. Lots of old enemies, and the voice of Mr. Mind for the very first time. As you can see, the original owner added some pencil scribbles…

Sivana, in southern scalliwag costume, presents a hypnotized Captain Marvel to the goon who runs a chain gang, with the idea that he will remain there for eternity
The 2nd story is so racist that I‘ll only post this for context. You relax into the tomfoolery and then have this bullshit just casually dropped in. So widely accepted then. Easy to see parallels with 2026...

Three panels depicting Hitler as a blustering jackass, Goebbels as a shrimpy weasel, Goering as an obese glutton, and Mussolini as a moronic Italian stereotype
The US was deep into the war effort by 1943, and the axis leaders are depicted with appropriate savagery! Although of course they have to go for the Italian stereotype for Mussolini

This two page spread launches the first story in grand style. It’s a fun farce with a nazi spy, disguised as Billy, causing trouble at the shipyard. #comicsky #captainmarveladventures #shazam #monstersocietyofevil #goldenagecomics

Cover for Batman 81. Deformed villain Two-Face is gleeful as Batman and Robin face death. They are tied to a giant coin that is being flipped onto a bed of spikes by a pink tractor-like vehicle with a coin flipping attachment
This was a birthday gift back in 2000. Lucky me! 🤯
I really love it, especially the custom giant-coin-flipping vehicle. Two-Face really commits to the bit! I wish his face was on it like the Jokermobile
