Alec The Great comes to us from the first issue of Joker Comics back in 1942. Creator, writer, and artists are all lost to history, as are any plans they may have had for the character. What we're left with is an introduction to a character who might have been a lot of fun. And another character inspired to become a superhero by reading a comic book. (Always fun, eh, Mindbender?)

Meet the right man to clean up crime -


Nope. Not This Magazine nor any other.

Raven Ravin'

In recent times we've been looking at The Spider Widow and Phantom Lady, and at the guy who hangs with both of them - The Raven.

But, who is the mysterious Raven?

The first episode was written by Robert Turner and illustrated by Martin Naydel. We don't know who wrote the rest or did art for the second, but the third tale is drawn by W.E. Rowland.

Now, let's find out more about The Raven, shall we...





Um -

Hmm...

I think we can do better than that... 


That's better. 
One more time!
 

Are we all feeling funnified now?
