Banner Comics

Ace Magazines' Banner Comics was a short-lived wartime title that ran for just three issues between 1941 and 1942, a typical example of the many anthology superhero and adventure comics that flooded newsstands during the Golden Age. The series featured a rotating cast of costumed heroes and action stories, with covers and interior art most frequently handled by George Wilson and Harry Sahle. Though it didn't launch any enduring characters, Banner Comics offers a snapshot of the energetic, experimental pulp-style storytelling that defined early superhero publishing before the industry's post-war consolidation.
