What can I say another great comic book of world war 2. The cover is wonderful.

The art for the Volton stories has to be the absolute worst I've seen for Golden Age comics. Hard to believe anybody in the industry allowed such ugly drawings in a time where Fletcher Hanks' art was considered bad.
   By
Yep, Volton looks like it was drawn by a teenage kid. Which it was. Joe Kubert was 16 years old when he drew this--and he went on to become one of the greats of American comic books. Gotta start somewhere. Joe had already been assisting in comics for two years, so he was able to skip the fanzine stage.

The house ad on the back cover is interesting: one of the selling points is "over 500 pictures!" Actually, that's only about 8 panels per page (not counting the text story, house ads, advertisements, & covers/inside covers).

I didn't expect a reply after what I posted. Sometimes, I think I'm the only one who comments on these Golden Age comics (whenever it's the rare moment I ever do). And that was Kubert?! He did improve a lot over those years.

The art on Volton is nowhere near the worst in a GA comic, imo. Yes, the figure work is all wonky but there are some some good, amusing eccentric faces and some lovely effects. More importantly, even at this early stage Mr. Kubert lets the story flow with a detail in one panel leading the reader to the next. Jesse Marsh was very good at this. But here the layouts aren't strict square panels to a page. There is some creativity and imagination in Volton. Nice comic. Lots of costumed mystery men and The Hood. A lot to enjoy.

[" Joe had already been assisting in comics for two years, so he was able to skip the fanzine stage. "] even so, it looks like Fanzine standard art. Joe's Autonomy had a long way to go, but his page layouts are quite sophisticated. Superheroes were never his thing anyway and he avoided them as much as possible.
