Title: Publising dates of Golden Age comic books (per issue)
Post by: vaillant on December 11, 2011, 02:10:40 PM

Hi, I apologize if this question has already been answered elsewhere, but being italian I am not so familiar with the Golden Age production as a whole.
I would like to know if there is somewhere a list of the comic book publications, divided by publisher, to know the release dates of the various issues. I mean, in most cases it can be read inside the comic, but it's not always so, and I see many comics in the sections just have the general time-span of their run.
Example: "Black Magic - (1950 Series)
Oct-Nov 1950 to Nov-Dec 1961

If someone could help me, I'd be grateful. Thanks! ;)

Go to this website: http://www.comics.org/

enter Black Magic into the search field. Then you'll get this page.

http://www.comics.org/series/name/black%20magic/sort/alpha/

click on the title "Black Magic" that matches your interest. i.e. Prize   Black Magic   1950

Then you'll get this window: http://www.comics.org/series/753/

Click on any issue to get dates and artist info. Use [Previous] and [Next] to move from issue to issue.

Peace, Jim (|:{>

Thanks to both. ;)

Black Magic was just an example, but of course a good example. :)
