Doctor Tom Brent, Young Intern

Doctor Tom Brent, Young Intern ran for five issues from Charlton Comics in the mid-1960s, a modest medical drama from an era when the genre was a staple of newsstand racks. Written primarily by prolific scripter Joe Gill, with art by the team of Charles Nicholas, Bill Montes, and Dick Giordano, the series followed the title character through the tense, human-scale challenges of hospital life. While brief, it stands as a clean example of Charlton’s workmanlike, character-focused approach to non-superhero storytelling.
