Description: A really interesting history of the first years of DC comics when pulp writer Malchom Wheeler-Nicholson created some of the earliest modern comics featuring all new features. In addition to the biographical material supplied by his descendent Nicky Wheeler-Nicholson, there are about 200 pages of full color reprints of stories from the first two years of what became DC comics. This material is rarely seen as the comics are incredibly scarce and sell in the thousands of dollars . The books shows the ties between the pulps and comics and is a major contribution to comics history. Since I was curious about the major's pulp work I tracked down a repitn book of some of his stories that is included as part of the deal It will be mailed well wrapped between boards or in a box by insured media mail- been shipping books and comixs for over 50 years.
