Big Town #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Flying City Room!", the pages of Big Town #2 (1951) unfold a surreal, behind-the-scenes glimpse of DC's editorial world, featuring a mock-up of the company's advisory board and a list of thirty-five currently published comics—among them the elusive Mystery Trail, a title that never saw actual release. The issue’s imaginative layout, lettered in typeset, captures a playful, in-universe parody of comic book publishing, with Dan Barry’s cover art adding a whimsical touch to the surreal concept.
