Couldn’t help noticing that one of the winners of the $1 prize competition was William Blatty of New York. Could it be the same William Peter Blatty of Exorcist movies fame? Also a New Yorker, Blatty would have been 11-years-old in 1939.

It’s interesting to me that these early American comics were much more like British comics with a wide variety of strips in every issue – personally, I prefer that to the single-character comics that are produced today.

Chen Chang was my favourite here – nice art from Munson Paddock – and I’ve always enjoyed Fu Manchu type stuff
