Three Corrections: 1) The Binky title was not published between late 1958 and mid-1968, so it missed an ENTIRE decade's worth of issues and thus did NOT run uninterrupted to the Bronze Age. 2) Johnny (Lawman) Thunder was never featured in the Western Comics title, instead he was in All-Star Western for a decade. 3) Robin Hood did not move over from his own title to Brave & the Bold after any cancellation. DC published Robin Hood Tales from early 1957 to early 1958, picking up directly from Quality, and Robin Hood was included in B & B from Apr-May 1956 (#5) to Dec. 1957- Jan. '58 (#15) -- so he was appearing SIMULTANEOUSLY. (DC actually began running him in B & B while Quality was still publishing Robin Hood Tales. Extremely popular Richard Greene TV series in those years.)
Appreciate the video. Remember, after Martin & Lewis split up, Dean was gone from DC. You mentioned Dean as a solo title in a previous video, but as you know it was Jerry ONLY that carried on for years. Also, I know you have things like the 100-page B & B issues, so you know Novick did Silent Knight and of course Kubert was on Viking Prince. Russ Heath did Golden Gladiator. I don't mean to dump a lot of trivial info, but I've studied DC's history for more than 45 years, so I just wanted to share some facts.
Jim really like the covers on both but especially brave and bold.
Really appreciate your deep dives into DC history, always entertaining and informative. DC really had something for everyone for decades.
Great pickups Jim. Thanks for the history lesson as well. Learning more and more about DC because of you and my collection shows. Thank you.
Jim, love your history lessons. Great video about all of those wonderful titles from way back.
excellent history lesson jim! lots of animal books i never even knew existed! great work!
I do enjoy your looks at these older books. I'm glad you mentioned Rex The Wonder Dog, I recall reading that early issues of this title are very hard to find.
DC sure had a wealth of non-superhero titles, including some I'd never heard of before your video. "The Raccoon Kids" and "Dodo And The Frog", who would have thought they were real titles, and successful ones at that.
Another thing about late 1940s/early 1950s comics was that a title could change literally between one issue and the next, for example 1949's Captain America #73 becoming Captain America's Weird Tales with #74.
Outstanding books. Great deals
Awesome history lesson ! Thank you.
Always enjoy a comic book history lesson. Those are a couple of great books. Alas, I don't have any Golden Age books, but I would love to acquire some. Obviously the superhero titles, but I'm also a sucker for war and horror books.
Great show sir!
8:48 Heath did the Golden Gladiator and Novick did Silent Knight. Sweet pick-up!
Enjoying the information.
You put out great content. I really enjoy your content and this video was spectacular I learned so much about DC. I also am a big fan of the videos you make reading the comics. Great videos thank you!!
I somehow wound up with the complete run of Miss Beverly Hills, which was a short series DC put out in the late 1940s
In fact I have the highest graded copy of Mr. District Attorney #49 CGC 6.5 (the only copy in any grade on census!!!)
That fascinating and odd transition period between the GA and SA. A desert for superheroes and dominated by a jumble of other genres.
I have one issue of Brave and the Bold..#20 and a copy of Big Town.
Great video.
I hate when people bid me right up to my max bid - that has happened several times to me. We must both have decided the same “max bid” and I reached it first. I would almost rather (sometimes) that they make one more bid and I lose.
Sellers "shill" bidding. If you buy from ebay...a large portion of sellers "shill" bid. It is easy to see if you look at the bidder section...

How many years was the golden age.
1938-1956
