Jimmy Wakely

A genuine curiosity from DC's Golden Age, Jimmy Wakely made his debut in the pages of Leave It to Binky #10 in 1949, brought to life by the creative team of Hal Seeger and Bob Oksner. With appearances spread across Detective Comics, his own self-titled series, and Leave It to Binky, this character moved in eclectic company — sharing pages with the likes of Robotman and Binky Biggs — making for a fascinatingly varied corner of late Golden Age DC. Rare in the catalog with just three recorded appearances and one recognized key issue among them, Jimmy Wakely is exactly the kind of find that reminds collectors how richly strange and wide-ranging DC's early output truly was.
