Hello everybody! My names Jim I'm logging in from Harrison, AR. I've just gotten tuned into Golden Age Public Domain comics and must say I am intrigued and fascinated. While I look forward to learning and discovering more as time goes by I do have a question that I would like to get an answer to relatively quickly... does anyone know if "The Adventures of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis" are in the public domain? Any help is truly appreciated.

Geo (RIP):
Welcome aboard, I'm sure you will find a lot of stuff you'll enjoy.

As to "The Adventures of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis", I'm sorry to say no they are not as they are the property of DC Comics which are not in the public domain.

Geo

jimsmegos:
Thank you for the quick reply. I figured as much but thought maybe, just maybe those may have slipped past someones radar.

josemas:
A slight correction to what Geo said.  The Adventures of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis comics are not owned by DC Comics.  The original comics were published by DC but it was a licensed feature and not one that they ever owned. 
I'm not sure who owns the current rights to the comics- possibly Jerry Lewis and the Dean Martin estate.

I sometimes see the occasional story from these comics pop up on blogs.  The series did have some nice art on it, generally by Bob Oksner, although I seem to remember some issues with art by Mort Drucker and Howie Post too.

Best

Joe

narfstar:
I believe that I read somewhere that the Dean and Jerry issues were never removed
