Flicker Holbrook

Flicker Holbrook is a Golden Age gem tucked inside Marvel's humor comics of the late 1940s, debuting in Joker Comics #28 in 1947 under the pen of artist Morris Weiss. With a brief but collector-noted run touching Joker Comics, Lana, and Millie the Model Comics, Flicker kept lively company alongside the likes of Millie Collins, Chili Seven, and Nellie the Nurse — the bright, breezy cast that defined Marvel's postwar funny-book universe. Four appearances may be a slim footprint, but one of them carries key-issue status, making Flicker a genuine find for devotees of the era's cheerful, undersung corners of comics history.
