Well, I don't really remember who told me about this place, but I bookmarked it a while back, then my computer crashed & burned (literally), and after having Data Recovery done, I found it again in my bookmarks!  ;D

After visiting Jim Hanley's Universe in Manhattan and listening to a podcast interview with comic historian Christopher Knowles, I decided to do a Dogpile search up on public domain comic characters of the Golden Age.

Hi! Longtime poster over at the Marvel Masterworks Message Boards. Found a link to this site there on a thread dedicated to the MLJ line of comics (of which I've seen very little).

I always heard my mom talk about the box of old comics my grandmother threw away, and the weird horror comics like The Crypt, and others I never got to see, so today I just thought of Googling PUBLIC DOMAIN COMICS and pickeed this site from the listings.  I just wanted to see the difference in old time art done by a human hand rather than computer rendered.

I found the site, registered about 2 hours ago, and tried to download a copy of BAFFLING MYSTERIES, but I got a message "Error: Sorry but you are not allowed to download this file as you have exceeded the number of files you are allowed to download during this period. Please check your user control panel for more information on the limits currently available to you.. If you believe this to be in error, please quote the above error and report this to the admin"

I thought it was a fluke, so I tried another and got the same message.

The COVERS look good on the main page, but would like to see a whole copy.

Anybody know of where the "admin" button or contact info is so I can see if they can fix me up so I can download something?
Please let me know.

Thanks :)

I used to use z-cult a lot but when I stopped by recently I was sad to see that all of the marvel and dc material had been removed. I noticed the links to here and thought I might have a look at some of the titles from the golden age that I have heard so much about. In particular I thought I'd see if you had any of the original iteration of The Spirit.

Hi there
While back I got a book from my local library about golden age comics. Did a web search after reading through it and lo and behold there you were. Will have to put my hands up and say that I'm just getting into golden age but better late than never as they say. I have been well impressed with the site and the quality of scans and material is top notch!

Hello from the Arizona desert.  My names Brad.  I found this site by typing Golden Age comics in the Google search engine.  I am so stoked to find this site with downloadable golden age comics.  Thanks to those of you who set this site up.

Thanks for the welcome narfstar. Sorry, I bring no gifts - only found many, many here. A neighbour passed on a HUGE box of 50's & 60's comics, similar to titles here to my bruv and self. They got junked (arghh!) after we left home. Who says you don't get 2nd chances? Am in happyland just looking at the covers.

Well enjoy what othes have provided.  I love when I am able to provide something that may not make it here otherwise for others to read.  If it is a book you never heard of it might have come from me as I collect the odd stuff.  I am not an admin but if you enjoy the site you might want to contribute money to get VIP status and go wild downloading.  There is more here that you will love that a download limit is constraining.  JIM

Hi and welcome Roberto
Do you happen to have any Chilean published or any other Spanish comics and would you consider indexing them for Grand Comics Database at www.comics.org   thanks JIM

I'm working on a couple of drawings and wanted to look at old styles of comic so did a google search for 1940 comics..found this site which looks brilliant.. only question is.. how do I get to a page to download a comic?? (yeah allright, I know I can hear a chuckle, but I don't normally subscribe to forums...)
cheers to all and hats off to the folk who spend their time doing these things.
