Tarzan, Sam Spade and Zorro appeared in pulp magazines. The Shadow was one of the most pop- ular characters and appeared in 326 issues from 1931 to 1939 according to Britannica. Looney Tunes, adventure, mystery and other genres appeared in Golden Age comic books, but superheroes were very popular and are the most valuable today. D.C. Comics intro- duced Superman in 1938. According to Britannica, writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster were unable to sell Superman as a daily series to newspa- per syndicates. “DC then took an enormous risk in 1938 by publishing the untried char- acter, given the depressed economic climate of the day,” Britannica writes. Action Comics # 1, featuring Superman, sold very well, and DC Comics grew into a highly successful company. According to PBS’ “History Detectives,” Captain Marvel by Wizz Comics was a very popular charac- ter during the 1940’s, often outselling Superman. Comic book sales increased during World War II. “They were cheap, portable and had inspirational, patriotic stories of good triumphing over evil,” PBS wrote. The first issue of Captain America pictured him in a stars and stripes costume battling Adolph Hitler on the cover. After the war, comic books with superheroes saw sales decrease and comics from other genres were created to help fill the void. Superhero comic books continued to be printed though. You can buy Superman comics today, over 80 years since the first issue was published. 6 • The Webster Times • Friday, June 19, 2020 www.StonebridgePress.com

The Great Getting back to normal Outdoors

RALPH TRUE

Now that some of the restrictions on daily activity are being lifted due to the Covid Pandemic, fishing is getting back to some form of normality. Some of the six pack Charter boats are now operat- ing in Massachusetts & Rhode Island and fishing has been pretty good over- all. Three anglers from Rhode Island fished the Buzzards Bay area Saturday and limited out on their daily bag of five seabass. They were all in the 18 to 21-inch size. They also caught huge scaup filling three coolers. Sounds like they had a great day. Captain Mark Petitt of Fire Escape Charters reported on some great striper fishing in Buzzards Bay last week, but unfortunately only two stripers were in the 28-inch slot limit , all the rest were schoolies. In two days, his cli- ents brought in close to 400 stripers, and they were hitting everything. The big fish have still not shown up!
