Hi Everyone!  I was looking for a comic that my grandpa was in and I came across your site.  I'm very impressed with what's on here.. :)  Any way the comic I'm looking for is Quality-Military Comics #30 from July of 1944.  It has my Grandpa Joe Longknife featured in one of the stories.  The reason I'm looking for it was because he died shortly after that; the POW Hellship the Shinyo Maru that he was on was sunk by friendly fire and he was one of hundreds that died.  Hopefully the site will let me download this story.   
Thanks All,

LK  ;D


Wow! That's amazing. Sad too  :'(
I hope you get to read it. I know I will!

Hey, thanks for the site. I found it through a link on Wikipedia saying 'download golden age comics' or something like that. This was during some research on the artwork of Joe Doolin. This guy's work is so wonderful. He was head and shoulders above the illustrators around him. He is one of the greatest comic illustrators ever, IMO. Anybody that knows anything about this obscure master: please do share your knowledge with me. Thanks, and glad to be here.

Start here, Ken:

And put Joe Doolin into the search field. Note that anything after the 1940s is a reprint.

Hey thanks, Jim! That's very kind of you. It's a start. The listing on Joe Doolin is somewhat limited in that there is no biographical info, but it seems quite comprehensive in listings of his work.

I noticed a reference to a 'Biographical Dictionary of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists 1988', so perhaps I can look into that.

Thanks again for the tip!

regards,

I discovered this site through a Google search. I thought I'd only be able to visit cover galleries, so it was great to find a resource that allows you to d/l complete issues. I've enjoyed vintage comic/pulp art since I was a teen.

I appreciate all of the work put into maintaining this place. If I notice any gaps in your collections, I'll upload some files from my scans if I have them.

I think I found GAC by Googling "golden age comics," but it's been so long I can't really remember. I've been visiting here off and on for a few years, but decided to stop lurking today.

My thanks to everyone who provides scans, maintains the site, and helps out here!

Like a lot of people, by Googling Golden Age Comic downloads. This is a really nice repository of public domain comics.

I've been a comic fan since I could read (about 46 years now) and I grew up during the "silver age" but even then I was always happiest when the JSA crossed over into Justice League.

found you the way anyone finds anything these days -- Google.

I have previously seen some Golden Age comics on Usenet (a.b.p.comics) -- there seems to be some overlap with what is posted here, I suspect they were reposts of what's in your archive, though I don't recall having seen a link.

My interests are "mid-century illustration" generally, and editorial cartooning back to the 19th century -- it was Gillray and Joseph Keppler (of "Puck") who first excited my interest.

Of Golden Age material, I'm least interested in superheroes (except really odd ones, like those of Fletcher Hanks), and more interested in social and editorial commentary.
