Percival Popp

Few characters can claim they've been sharing pages with DC legends since 1941, but Percival Popp has done exactly that — debuting in the landmark More Fun Comics #73, a Golden Age cornerstone brought to life by the legendary Jerry Siegel and Bernard Baily, the same issue that introduced Aquaman. That kind of company — Aquaman, The Spectre, Johnny Quick, Speedy, Roy Harper — speaks to the rich, anything-goes energy of DC's earliest era, when More Fun Comics was a genuine showcase for the publisher's imagination. With two collector-recognized key appearances and a presence that stretches across more than eight decades of comics history, Percival Popp is a genuine artifact of the Golden Age worth seeking out — especially in the beloved facsimile edition that brings that historic first issue back to modern hands.
