    Fox Features was one of the earliest comic-book publishers during the golden age of comics. Started by Victor Fox and Bob Farell in 1939, reportedly after Fox was working as an accountant for National Periodicals (DC Comics) and saw the sales figures for Action Comics #1. Fox initially hired the the Eisner-Iger studios to produce the creative content for their anthology books including: Mystery Men, Fantastic Comics and Wonderworld Comics. The latter of these titles was re-titled from Wonder Comics after National sued Fox for allegedly copying the Cover feature, Wonderman from Superman. Legendary comics creator Will Eisner, the creator of the character and his one and only (golden age) appearence, was called to testify. Eisner testified that Wonderman was an original creation but that Victor Fox had directly asked him to “Make him his own Superman” Fox lost the case and ceased publication of Wonderman. He also cut ties with the Iger-Eisner studio and hired another comics legend to edit and produce the companies creative work, Joe Simon.

Abstract: Panels were tested at different locations around the turbine blade, on both suction and pressure surfaces. Three different surface porosities were also tested. Results demonstrated that the approach can be very successful with high levels of film cooling effectiveness, exceeding 95%, achieved using low coolant mass flow rates. Increasing the surface porosity also proved to be an important parameter in the panel’s performance. Additionally, staggering the film holes lead to signif- icant positive interactions between individual films, resulting in much improved panel performance.
