DC Comics Before Superman: Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson's Pulp Comics

A 2018 one-shot from Hermes Press, this comic collects a trio of pulp adventures by Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson, the visionary founder of DC Comics. Featuring the art of Sven Elven, it offers a glimpse into the raw, pre-superhero storytelling that Wheeler-Nicholson championed in the late 1930s. For fans of comics history, it’s a direct line to the publisher’s earliest narrative DNA.
