Suggestions? Where to start?  :-/

Try Hillman Comics Air Fighters / Airboy. Over at Quality Comics the original Jack Cole Plastic Man offers even wackier fun than Cpt. Marvel. Also check out Doll Man & the Blackhawks there.

MLJ, now Archie, offers the Shield, the patriotic hero who predates Captain America. Early issues of Novelty's Target Comics are filled with great stuff.

When you've exhausted those, just dig around. Gems may be found in a lot of places. Plus, some stuff is so bad it is downright fun to read. Stories by Fletcher Hanks, for instance.

Good suggestions gang.
I'd add maybe check our Archives/Collections section at the top of the site.

Kirby's in a lot of places.  Check out Prize...he did some early Black Owls in PRIZE and crime stories in HEADLINE and JUSTICE TRAPS THE GUILTY.  He was also in Hillman's AIRBOY (Flying Fool), multiple places at Harvey, first ish of CAPTAIN MARVEL ADVENTURES and first Mr. Scarlet in WOW, and a bunch of other places.

The Grand Comics Database will show you what he's done in chronological order if you use this link -
http://www.comics.org/penciller/name/Jack%20Kirby/sort/chrono/?pencils=Jack+Kirby&method=icontains&target=sequence&page=3

The first two pages listed foreign books first which were reprints so you can ignore those unless they are of interest to you.

The GCD is a vital link for such info - it should be in all members favourites/bookmarks.

Yes, GCD tries to cover as much of the comics world as it can.  You can search by character name as well as many other options.

You can find specific titles on DCM by using the search window above our banner.  Treasure Chest is here -
