About the series
Running for 139 issues from 1945 to 1955, Magazine Enterprises' A-1 was a versatile anthology series that showcased a rotating roster of newspaper strip talents, including Ferd Johnson, Hilda Terry, and Alfred Andriola. With artists like Charles Quinlan Sr. and Johnson bringing a polished, syndicated-cartoonist sensibility to its pages, the title served as a showcase for humor, adventure, and serialized features. Its decade-long run made it a reliable fixture on newsstands, bridging the gap between wartime and postwar comics while spotlighting creators better known for their daily strips.
