Thanks for this great site : )

Wow!

I collected comics in the '80s--mostly Marvel, mostly then-current stuff, with a few tattered Silver Age books found here and there--and have more recently found classic strips like Little Nemo and Flash Gordon, but I never got to see much in the way of comic books from the Golden Age, so finding this site--it was linked from the Wikipedia article on The Weeper ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weeper ), who showed up in an episode of "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" that I saw on Netflix recently--is really, *really* exciting!

I was so excited I told all my comic-reading friends, and wrote a breathless little article about DCM on my blog (here), and I heard back from a few folks who were excited to find this site too. As a guy who's trying to make his own comics these days, I'm especially thrilled about having access to all these great old sci-fi stories, which have already started to fuel ideas and inspiration.

Just great. Thanks to everyone who has helped put this tremendous resource together for the rest of us! I know I'm gushing a bit but my head is still spinning a little bit over being able to read all these books! : D

Hi Ben,
Thanks for all your kind words.  Welcome to the fold!
I read your blog review and only would add you can move ahead more than one page at a time if you use the DOWN ARROW inside of our PREVIEW feature.

You will then see thumbnails for each page that you can click on to advance. 

Have fun with all the goodies here,

Oh, nice! Thanks, I never would have figured that out myself. I've updated my hastily written little article with that information. : )

Sounds like someone should update the Wikipedia article ^_^
