Amos Twist

Amos Twist is a Platinum Age curiosity from the earliest days of DC's storied history, debuting in More Fun Comics in 1937 — a time when the comic book medium itself was still finding its footing. Created by Tom Cooper, this rare figure shares his pages with some genuinely fascinating company, including the supernatural Dr. Occult and the ominously named Lord of Life, hinting at the wonderfully strange, pulp-flavored corners of pre-superhero comics. With appearances spread across More Fun Comics and Atomic Comics through the mid-1940s, Amos Twist is the kind of deep-catalog gem that rewards the dedicated collector who loves exploring the wild, formative era before capes and cowls took over the world.
