--- Quote from: paw broon on November 12, 2011, 07:43:04 AM ---As a Marvelman fan from way back, when all we could get here were British comics, I was particularly saddened to read this. He did so much for British comics and gave so many young lads such great escapist entertainment.

I never cared for the "Miracleman" perversion of the other Marvel Family, but I did enjoy the few adventures of Marvelman, Young Marvelman, and Kid Marvelman I've been lucky enough to see. I'm also saddened by that news.

I Owe Les Daniels so much and if not for his excellent 'COMIX' sparking my interest in Golden Age Material I doubt that I would be on this forum today.
Before reading his book I thought that the only two comics publishers in the USA during the Golden Age were National and Timely but his book helped open my young eyes to the bigger picture.
Thanks Les, and RIP.
