| According to the fastidiously researched, American Comic Book Chronicles, this 1944 one-shot giant comic book, Hollywood Comics, was packaged (drawn by) Comic House (New York studio) by Lev Gleason, for client, New Age Publishers, Inc. (a funds-raising arm of American Youth For Democracy, exclusively to raise funds for their efforts in pushing left wing political causes. On The Grand Comics Database, only New Age Publishers, Inc. is listed as publisher, with no reference to Quality Comics in ANY way being related to this book's production. So, I think it should be placed either with Lev Gleason's publishing category, as his firm ordered the artwork from Comic House, and packaged (edited and assembled) the book, and was paid by New Age Publishers for doing so, and had it distributed by it's own regular distributors, as his own product, and forwarded the profits (over and above publishing costs net of his production costs and own company's fees for the book's production), OR have this New Age Publishers single book placed in Comic Book Plus' One Shot Publishers category. |
