	Encyclopedia: The Sandman (DC Comics Golden Age) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Sandman, alias Wesley Dodds, is a comic book superhero in the DC Comics universe, best known for his stories set during the 1940s and his "costume" consisting of a green business suit, fedora, and gas mask.
		The Sandman was one of the earliest superheroes (then called "mystery men" for lack of a better term), though his status as such is debatable as he came rather from the detective tradition seen in the pulps of the 1930s.
		Like the Marvel Comics Sandman, Sand had gained the power to turn into sand, though otherwise he was the true heir to the original, pulp fiction-inspired Sandman in all but name.

	Holey Moley's Comic Book Cover Quest
		There is no denying that DC Comics and its predecessors were the masters of the golden age of comics, creating an extrodinary number of unique characters and publications that publishers even today still try to imitate or re-create.
		DC deserves the highest place of honor with regard to a golden age that they essentially created.
		The folks at DC should be paying this guy a huge salary for the enormous amount of work and the extrodinary job that he has done on his site.

	The Golden Age of DC Comics: 365 Days (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		From the late 1930s to the mid-1950s, DC Comics blazed a creative, innovative trail in popular culture, and the company has remained at the forefront of the comics industry ever since.
		Comics historian Les Daniels, graphic designer Chip Kidd, and photographer Geoff Spear have delved deep into the DC archives, to which they were granted unprecedented access, highlighting not only the classics that have become pop-culture icons but also lost gems like More Fun Comics and Comics Cavalcade.
		The reading is a bit too light and the focus is on the blown up comic panel rather than on some interesting trend of the time when the comic that surrounded the panel was published.

		Though there may be heroes and heroines missing but only the hard-core and older fans of the DC Universe will notice.
		If you are looking for a book that has most of DCs characters and information about them such as real names and what issue and year they first appeared in and more then I strongly recommend this book!
		The artwork all comes from previously published work unlike the old "Whos Who In the DC Universe" publications, where artists were hired to create new portraits of each character.

	Science Fiction Cool Stuff
		Each pair of pages features a reproduction of some classic comic-book artwork from the copious vaults of DC Comics on the right-hand page, while the left-hand page hosts text concerning the illustration, under the heading of the day of the year, including artist, author and magazine credits insofar as they are known.
		The book opens with Daniels' introduction (Chip Kidd also contributes a preface), which delimits the Golden Age as that period stretching from Superman's debut in 1938 to the near-extinction of the superhero genre during the post-Wertham malaise of 1955.
		By his own admission, that's a liberal expansion of the term, since the Silver Age is generally acknowledged to have started in 1956 with the rebooting of the Flash.

		It wasn't the first company to produce comic books, but it may have been the first to be successful featuring original material.
		Barry Allen, the Silver Age Flash used his super-speed powers to travel to a parallel universe, where he met the Golden Age Flash Jay Garrick.
		Because Earth-2 didn't directly affect the primary continuity of the major comics, the writers had the chance to explore how the characters' lives had actually played-out, without having to "reset" them to a traditional status at the end of each story.

		Originally the book was going to include both Golden Age and Silver Age, but on the first day I was in New York to meet with Chip and Charlie, I suggested we do the whole book on the Golden Age.
		Chip and I had never met when another DC editor, Steve Korte, brought us together for “Superman: The Complete History.” The three of us had lunch at the start, but that was my only direct contact with Chip until the book was done.
		The comic art was, nice but a bit too "arty" for me with the blow ups.

	Adventure Comics Cover Gallery
		I was nine years old when I bought my first DC comic book, Adventure Comics #335, whose cover featured the villain "Starfinger" threatening Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes.
		I knew very little about the earlier issues of Adventure, and although I managed to come across a tattered copy of Adventure #312, it wasn't until my interest in comics was rekindled in the late 1970's that I extended my collection of Adventure's back to about 1959.
		With few exceptions, most of the covers featured below were the work of venerable DC artist Curt Swan (1920-1996), who set the Silver Age standard for drawing Superman, and who handled the cover artwork for almost every title in the Superman family during this period.

		Many folks for years have been wanting DC to revisit their Who's Who series from the mid-80's, an A to Z covering of characters.
		The one thing that becomes painfully obvious to this long time comic reading fan is that the focus of this tome swings heavy to the post-Crisis universe (understandable as that is what the current continuity is - stuff reorganized and introduced since 1986).
		Lets face it, unless DC reprints Who's Who you are not going to get a complete guide to the DC characters, this book is made to represent as many of their characters as they could.
