Letters Page

   Welcome to the Letters Page, everybody! Let me take a second to mention the updated AC Comics web site, now featuring a great webshop offering almost 500 comics from their backlist, including almost 3,000 pages of high-quality Golden Age reprints. The site and the comics are highly recommended. Now, on with the letters:
   Hi Bill. Another great issue! I really enjoy the space-themed stories only second to the costumed mysterymen. In all honesty the space heroes are just costume types set in a space setting for the most part. This really rings true for Brad Spencer who evolved from a costumed hero to an outer-space hero. I must thank Richard who gave me a run down on Brad, and his very interesting history (he will be featured sooner or later on our site). I hope to see more "specials" of this type, and any western characters you might have; they are my third favorite. But whatever you decide, I'll be reading. Thanks for another fun-filled issue.
   Take care,

Darrin

   Darrin, I will see what I can do about featuring some western characters in the not-to-distant future. Glad to hear you enjoyed the sci-fi special. (Everyone is urged to check out Richard and Darrin's web site The Good Guys and Gals of the Golden Age Art Gallery, an invaluable resource for profiles of Golden Age characters!)
   Excuse my English. Your page is wonderful. The idea of publishing, in the complete, old histories of the comics, deserves applauses.
   Cordially,

Jose Pinto de Queiroz Filho

   Jose, I am happy that you enjoy my homepage. It is nice to hear from people from other countries who enjoy the comics of the Golden Age. Everyone should check out Jose's web site at http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Lot/9752.
   That's it for the letters page this month. Be sure to check back next month for three more great reprints! And remember, my fourth CD-ROM will be available very soon! [Editor's Note: it is now available!] It's basically done but needs a final proofreading. Also, I'm having my rugs restretched in a couple of days, so I need to remove everything from the computer room (what my wife refers to as the "living room") and I won't have a chance to burn any CDs for a few days. See you next month!

Golden Age Cover Gallery
Golden Age cover

In the gallery this month is Exciting Comics No. 22, featuring the first appearance of the American Eagle in that title. This is just a shameless way of promoting my new CD-ROM, of course, even tho' I don't own this comic and the American Eagle story from it is NOT on my new CD! This comic featured the origin of the American Eagle's sidekick, the Eaglet!
