Silver Age Charlton?

Sorry it was "mostly" sarcasm but I wouldn't mind seeing a Silver Age site, and you did sound more interested than most. ;)

Well, I have looked into what it would take to start-up a comic-related site of my own without spending a single penny (besides being lazy, I'm fairly cheap, too, yet focused when I want to be), but haven't been all that serious about starting-up anything as of yet. Since there are now multiple options for freely storing files online, it really opens-up the door as to what I could ... if I ever figure-out WHAT, exactly, I'ld want to do (I have one idea, but that won't happen anytime soon for various reasons). I wouldn't bother to start-up a "PD Silver Age" site myself unless I really had a solid plan going-in, which I simply don't have at this point.

A lot depends on what you consider Golden Age or Silver Age years to be: I have seen it be Golden Age up to 1950, Atomic from 1950-56 (always thought atomic was first before that) and silver from 1956 until the late 60's early 70's.
I have seen different years checking different places.
I also thought I had seen it written some where on the old GAC that everything 1961 and on at least had one automatic copyright renewal. Since it was Aussie I thought who wrote that (and I could be very, very wrong) I wonder it Aussie remembers posting that or maybe saying it in a chat. Aussie, Can you let me know if it is just my pain pill fogged mind imagining this or did I actually see it?
Thats the problem with a lot of things the last 12-14 years now, depending on how I have reacted to the mixture of chemicals prescribed to me my memory goes from the great it used to always be to the "huh what was that comic I just looked at the text list 2 seconds ago?" At least these pills aren't like the lower level pain pills like darvocet I had to settle for before the pain clinics summer, which used to give me violent dreams it would take a few minutes to come out of.

No it was a few years later when the need to renew the copyright was removed. I always considered 1954/55 the end of the golden age of comics, anything pre code I would consider GA. I allowed anything PD up to 1959 to mainly keep it GA themed and because the copyright records of the 60's were going to be too much work, there were too many questions about the PD status. It is far easier to stick with 1959 or earlier.
OtherEric:
A correct registration is still needed for the automatic renewal until fairly recently. And most stuff did have a correct registration even if it doesn't look like it- the THUNDER Agents being a case in point. (I'm still not convinced they were ever correctly registered. But my opinion isn't what pertains; it's the Judge's opinion.)
