Yes, please, Michael,
Comics history is my favorite thing...

The site is called The Authentic History Center, at www.authentichistory.com. It's U.S. history based on popular culture. It's a life-long project with many years yet to go. I just uploaded new stuff chronologically through the 1920s and will be working to replace old pages and add new stuff from the 1930s to the present over the next few months. I don't have much comic-related up there yet as I'm still collecting sources, but basically I will eventually have extensive essays on WWII, Korea, Cold War, Vietnam, etc. as portrayed in comics. Some time when I get one done I'll ask for feedback. I have to finish replacing old pages first, then I have huge sections on WWI and WWII music to finish, and then I'll turn to the comics.

Thanks for the interest.

~Michael

Michael,

Your site is wonderful. Through it I was able to locate new scholarly research regarding John Brown.

Again, wonderful!

Very interesting site, Michael.
Should you need access to additional primary research, I have nearly complete runs of Century Magazine, Scribner's Magazine and Harper's Magazine from about 1890-1920, plus many years of Life Magazine from 1885 to 1915 and many bound volumes of McClure's Magazine, Everybody's Magazine and others. It's not just about comic books, as you well know...

thanks for all your work MB and a big thank you for Joe and Western Fighters now up

Michael, for your WWI propaganda section, if you can lay your hands on it, you'll probably want to at least read "The Eagle's Eye," by Courtney Ryley Cooper (story and background by the William J. Flynn, whose name you no doubt recognize from his acclaimed Secret Service stint at that time). It's not just insight into the era itself, but it's clearly the "playbook" for WWII propaganda twenty years later. And it's a fun read, to boot.

Folks, thanks for the comments about my website. Jim, those magazines should also be scanned some day, if it could be done without damaging them. I know that the few bound volumes I have tend to have somewhat brittle pages. I may take you up on the offer at some point

Here are a few more uploads:

Now up greatly appreciated MB

Yoc · « **Reply #158 on:** September 17, 2009, 08:38:16 PM »

Looks like a site with some real potential MB!
Good luck with it and thanks of course for the latest uploads.

Michael Barnes · « **Reply #159 on:** October 11, 2009, 08:36:34 PM »

A few uploads tonight:

Prize:
Headline Comics 017

Standard:
Real Life Comics 026

Note: there is an uploaded file called Headline Comics 017 (Blue Streak) that is mislabeled. That appears to be the origin of Blue Streak from Headline Comics 013. Issue 017 does not have a Blue Streak story.

Question: Do we really not have any other issues of Real Life Comics? I couldn

narfstar · « **Reply #160 on:** October 12, 2009, 01:00:15 AM »

Thanks for the two comics MB and the info on #13. Your books are now available and the other corrected.

Yoc · « **Reply #161 on:** October 12, 2009, 05:23:38 AM »

Thanks very much MB!

Michael Barnes · « **Reply #164 on:** December 11, 2009, 02:16:12 AM »

Blizzard "snow day" means time to scan a few comics:

Wow, great stuff. Thanks MB!

Umm, you uploaded these with the 'Upload File' link on the site right Michael?
We are currently locked out of there ourselves so we can't activate your uploads. If you'd like to upload to the FTP I can then get them up on the site. It's a problem we talk about here if you want more details -

Michael Barnes · « **Reply #166 on:** December 11, 2009, 11:25:08 AM »

Sorry, I knew the site had been down for a few days, but I didn't know there were lock-out problems.

I upload to the FTP under my name.

~Michael

darkmark · « **Reply #167 on:** December 11, 2009, 02:08:27 PM »

Thanks, Michael, picking them up from there.

Yoc · « **Reply #168 on:** December 11, 2009, 04:42:49 PM »

Thanks very much for re-uploading them Michael!
My hope is someday you and everyone else can return to using the Upload File link! It's the method I most appreciated as an admin on the site.

narfstar · « **Reply #169 on:** December 12, 2009, 02:08:52 AM »

You beat me to them Yoc. I had just ftp them to upload. For bulk uploads the ftp was great when the site was running right.

Yoc · « **Reply #170 on:** December 12, 2009, 02:45:31 AM »

Yep, and I dearly hope we can one day again use the FTP to add scans to the site.
Fingers crossed!
