	Lev Gleason Publications (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Leverett Gleason was the publisher of a number of popular comics during the 1940s and early 50s, including Daredevil and Boy Comics.
		Gleason was among the first to produce comic books aimed at an adult audience, and he labelled some of his books "illustories" to suggest that they were a new, different form.
		Gleason's titles (along with those produced by EC Comics) became prime targets of the criticism of comic books that led to the adoption of the Comics Code Authority by the comic industry in 1954.

	Museum of Comic Book Advertising - Hall of Comic Book Covers
		Lev Gleason's books, like Daredevil and Crime Does Not Pay, espoused a somewhat liberal attitude toward juvenile crime and its root causes.
		Unfortunately for Lev Gleason, he spent much energy defending his own medium, and his publishing company in particular, against charges that they were just such a corrupting influence.
		His defense of his publication was certainly intended to protect these ads, and the revenue they generated.

	xmen power
		A torrent of ideas seemed to rush through the pages of the company's publications as the concept of the super hero was reworked and revised, reshaped and revitalized.
		As a result, the next round of super heroes made their first appearances not in new publications, but as features in the already existing "monster" comics, which had now outlived their popularity.
		The name had been used before, for a character introduced by Lev Gleason Publications but abandoned years earlier, and Lee reasoned that it was particularly appropriate for his new "Man Without Fear." Another name from bygone days became associated with the first issue when Bill Everett came on board to draw the story.

	CHS: Comics: Heroes, Heartthrobs & Horrors
		Realizing the popularity of these publications, New York-based newspaper publishers began to produce their own Sunday “comic supplements.” This era of comic illustration is tentatively referred to as the Victorian Age of comics (although the mantle is something of a misnomer when applied to work as early as Topffer).
		The bitterness of the American conflict in Vietnam may have soured the public’s taste for wartime drama, and might be considered to have been the death of the war comic as a popular genre.
		These “grim and gritty” heroes reflected the public’s anxiety about urban crime, and their violent, “any means necessary” solutions to crime fighting often thrust them into the realm of moral ambiguity.

	Lev Gleason's Comic House
		Among his non-comics publications were two magazines (among others) named Friday, and Salute (a veterans' mag) that were considered "Commie influenced." In 1946 he, along with a group of sixteen others, were charged with contempt of Congress by HUAC, for failure to turn over subpoenaed documents.
		Under Gleason's leadership, Comic House did not publish many titles; but the ones they did publish were blockbusters, reaching sales of up to 2 million by 1947.
		Consequently, Lev Gleason found his line one of the prime targets of attack by Frederick Wertham; his crime comics were frequently mentioned during the Kefauver hearings.

	Heritage Comics Takes a Bite Out of the Big Apple!
		Claw was one of the first supervillains in comics, period, and he was a formidable one indeed -- not only did he almost epitomize evil, not only was his goal nothing short of world domination, and not only did he have fearsome claws and fangs, he could also grow to enormous size!
		He'd prove to be quite a handful for many a Lev Gleason hero, most notably Daredevil who first appeared in this series a few issues later.
		All of this contributes to the issue's Overstreet ranking as one of the 100 most valuable Golden Age books; the catch is that it's harder to find than most of the others, earning Overstreet's "scarce" designation.

		Now he had been lost in the Australian Outback as a child and adopted by a tribe of aborigines who instructed him in the fine art of boomerang throwing.
		Despite such inconsistencies, along with all the other Gleason titles for art and story these were among the best crafted Golden Age comics.

		Even Marvel has used names/titles from other comic books - Daredevil was the name and title of a chracter from Lev Gleason Publications, as early as 1941.
		It's not the same DD as Marvel, but Lev Gleason had it first.
