Buddy

Born in the very first issue of National Comics back in 1940, Buddy is a genuine Golden Age original, conjured up by the legendary Will Eisner alongside Dave Berg at the dawn of American superhero publishing. Sharing pages with the likes of Uncle Sam and a colorful cast of characters, Buddy found a home in the patriotic, anything-goes spirit of that era's anthology comics. That debut issue carries collector-significant key status, making this a character with real historical weight for Golden Age enthusiasts. Decades later, Gwandanaland Comics helped keep Buddy's legacy accessible, a testament to the enduring charm of those early Eisner-touched pages.
