At every point, Joe Simon and Jack Kirby raised the bar.
When they came to comics, ""Superman had been around for about a
year, and the medium was still in its infancy. They took the action
and made it explode, breaking out of the panels and sprinting
across the page. They showed what comics could do, experimenting
with layout and design, creating the first full-page panels and
double page spreads.
Their first million-seller was a superhero ("Captain America"), and
their next was military adventure that outsold Superman (DC's" Boy
Commandos"). These two guys from Rochester and Brooklyn broke all
the rules when they created the first romance comics, and they
blazed trails in every genre: horror, science fiction, crime etc
...
Their work in the legendary title "Black Magic" was acclaimed by
readers. It was held up on national television by the Senate
Committee on Juvenile Delinquency, where experts claimed "Black
Magic "contributed to the corruption of American youth Also
included here are the Simon and Kirby stories from the experimental
terror title "Strange World of Your Dreams."
