The Brave and the Bold (vol. 1) #30 (July, 1960). Cover by Mike Sekowsky and Murphy Anderson.

This was the Justice League of America's third appearance, and also its last headlining B & B. The JLA would appear again in its own self-titled book a few months later.

This issue also marks the first appearance of long-time JLA foes Professor Ivo and the android Amazo.

In 1999, the speedster known as The Flash began fighting crime in Central City, Oregon, combining the inspiring presence and gentle demeanor of Superman with the facts-driven and logical mind of Batman.

Later that same year, Coast City, California would get its own hero in the Green Lantern, a cocky man who claimed to be an officer from an intergalactic peacekeeping force assigned to this sector of space.

2003 would see the appearance of the Green Arrow, a Robin Hood-like figure who would target and expose corrupt officials in Star City, Washington and surrounds.

Though not as notable as The Trinity of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, the three Heroes of the West Coast would be instrumental and important in the Silver Age of Superheroes.

This is my first time posting anything of my writing, so I'm a bit nervous, ahah. This was a test to gauge my writing skills and how well I can mimic the Silver Age style~ The Flash and the Magnetic Menace - Anonymous - The Flash (Comics) [Archive of Our Own]

I miss Heat Wave's original origin

No traumatic backstory, no childhood homicide. Just a guy who thought it'd impress a woman.

I admit, it's not the brightest plan, but I like it. It's fun. And it doesn't try to either make the audience feel sorry for the villain or give a "born evil" vibe. I prefer that it not play on mental illness - not only is it poorly done in comics, it's way over done in comics.

One thing I love about reading the golden age comics (besides the fact they go unhinged fast) is that it’s nice seeing Dick good at stuff other than acrobatics and being sexualized. The kid is a science genius (especially physics so all you AU ppl if you wanted to make him an engineer it’s plausible), aces just about every subject, takes foreign language classes (I think it was Latin, but I can’t remember for sure), is an ace slingshot user (it’s just hilarious to me that’s never acknowledged and he’s the only hero I can think of who has this skill), he is a good kid all things considered but is absolutely ruthless to criminals. I think it was Detective Comics 46 Where Bruce just let him pick off the riffraff while he dealt with Strange. And he does it in some of the funnest ways possible. Also not that it’s a “OMG Dicknis amazing in it, but I really liked Detective Comics 47. It’s messaging was super hamfisted but it just was a nice story, not amazing or superb, just a good one that reminded a bit on how Bruce was on BTAS which I will favor above just about anything.

#dick grayson #nightwing #Batman #detective comics #golden age #there’s no point to this point I just miss seeing some of these characterizations #especially with Dick he just got screwed over imo #not in terms of personality but more it feels like he lost a huge portion of himself over the years #I still love the character but it’s like how someone said #they try to remake the silver age plots but they just can’t get it to be right cause the love isn’t there just the memes #and I feel like that’s Dick he’s just written with all flash and no substance #and when they added Tim as the smartest Robin they dumbed down the rest because the writers couldn’t be smarter and that just hurtseveryone #it’s like the Riddler story problems #and it’s funny after 66 all the ppl went were not going to have a goofy Batman when they became adults #and now that my age group who grew up with BTAS are writing most are going we are not doing this BS Batman anymore

DC should bring back Barry's habit of playing dress up at every opportunity. Return him to his theater geek roots.

#barry allen #the flash #Like. So many Silver Age comics involved Barry doing quickchanges with costumes and makeup.#Half his friends were theater people. Let's go back to that. Imagine Barry teaching Bart to do makeup.
