Golden Age of Comics

A short-lived but ambitious anthology series from New Media Publishing, Golden Age of Comics (1982–1984) sought to revive the spirit of the 1940s by featuring new stories and features from veteran creators who had defined that era. The eight-issue run brought together talents like Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel and legendary artist Bill Everett, alongside other stalwarts such as Bob Lewis and Fred Kida, offering a mix of original material and nostalgic homages. Edited primarily by Hal Schuster and Jim Korkis, the series serves as a fascinating bridge between the classic age it celebrated and the direct-market boom of the early 1980s.
