| Ace Harlem is a cool character . . . ! |
|
| This is a gem for its rarity. There are very few black stories let alone black comic books from the Golden Age of Comics. Journalist Orrin Evans created an assortment of stories and characters that was innovative. These characters are ripe for a reintroduction into this new age. Worth The Read. |
