Reviews

The three early comic books reprinted in DC Comics Rarities are fascinating cultural artifacts. The two issues of New York World's Fair Comics were distributed at the 1939-40 exposition; they feature some of the earliest exploits of Superman and Batman, who travel from Metropolis and Gotham City, respectively, to visit the event. The massive Big All-American Comic Book from 1944 boasts some of DC's biggest stars as well as lesser lights and itself reprints some of the popular long-running newspaper strip, Mutt and Jeff. A piquant sampler of comics' Golden Age. Gordon Flagg
