A Look into the Golden Era - Marvel Mystery Comics

Nowadays you can't go anywhere, turn on the TV, or browse the Internet without seeing something about Marvel and its cinematic universe offerings. Before Marvel became the entertainment powerhouse today in the movie industry, with billions of dollars in revenue and a sweet-heart acquisition by Disney, they were one of many offering in the comic book world.

Independent comics such as Image and Dark Horse began to rise before the advent of the cinematic universe, but before these scrappers came onto the scene, if you wanted a comic book adventure, you were limited pretty much to DC and Marvel.

But before Marvel was one of the "Big Two," who were they, and where did they come from? Today, we're going to look at the origins of Marvel Comics, and specifically, their birth in the Golden Era of comics book publishing in the pulp heydays.

Timely Comics

More properly known as Timely Publications, the company was founded in 1939 by a man named Martin Goodman. Goodman was the owner of a pulp magazine publishing company who saw the rise of the first super hero comics of the time and their skyrocketing popularity as an excellent business opportunity.

For those not in the know, pulp magazines and books were called such because they were printed with cheap paper that was often unfinished on the edges. They were also known for their often sordid content, a reputation that comics would pick up themselves in the post-war era and eventually lead to the creation of the Comics Code Authority, an industry-created watchdog of sorts.

Timely Comics (TC) was a sort of "umbrella" publisher that incorporated many works as part of a business strategy employed by Goodman. The first comic published by Timely Comics, entitled simply "Marvel Comics," had a small initial print run that ran out quickly. Pleased with this success, Timely went ahead and published another, larger run, which also ran out.

With a successful venture already underway, "Marvel Comics" were renamed to "Marvel Mystery Comics," and the second issue came out in December.

First Appearances

One of the possible reasons for the early success of Marvel Comics was the introduction of fantastic characters that we still know and love today, though they were often far different characters at their inception!

The Human Torch

It may surprise you to discover that writer-artist Carl Burgos created the iconic inferno, not as a wise-cracking hot-headed member of the Fantastic 4, but instead as an android constructed by a mad scientist.

His first few appearances portrayed the fiery machine as a monstrous being, but the Human Torch became a fan favorite, and he was transitioned into a secret identity type character who worked as a policeman for a cover. The Human Torch fell off in popularity rather quickly, and was not a major part of the initial Marvel Comics run. When the brand was revived later by Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, the burning android was recreated as the character we know and love today.

Namor the Sub-Mariner

Bumping elbows with an uncomfortably warm icon in the first issue of Marvel Comics was also Namor the Sub-Mariner, an anti-hero type of character created by Bill Everett. Inspired by the poem "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Everett created a character who was as often villainous as he was heroic, butting heads with the United States and the red-hot automaton mentioned earlier.

Namor has been a staple of Marvel Comics since its inception, and he enjoyed his own run of comics focused entirely on his adventures. Though often quick-tempered and tempestuous in nature, Namor wasn't afraid to drive home a point with a tidal wave or two. During the advent of World War II, Namor took a heroic bent and served to help bring down Hitler and his Nazi war-machine, as most comic heroes did at the time.

If a mutant merman fighting Nazis doesn't stir your patriotic blood, perhaps this next hero who first rose to prominence at this time will.

Captain America

Joe Simon was the first editor of TC, and a talented writer as well. While trying to think of a patriotic character, he created a rough sketch of Captain America. Cap's birthday was a difficult time for the world, with World War 2 raging and tensions between the United States and Japan at an all-time high.

Simon took the idea to the owner of Timely Publications, Martin Goodman, and to his surprise, the prescient business man ordered Simon to create a solo-character run of comics. Simon was somewhat taken by surprise, and knew he would have to work hard to create a comic about a single character and fill it with content on his own.

To that end, he considered partnering with Al Avison and Al Gabriele. Simon was worried that with all this content to create, his usual artistic partner Jack Kirby might not be able to carry so much workload.

However, Kirby's pride and talent convinced Simon to stick with his usual artistic partner, and Captain America Comics went on sale in December of 1940. With an incredible cover of Cap slugging Adolph Hitler in the face, the first issue sold a million copies.

While the patriotism and values Cap stood for were popular with many, they were not so popular as others. A little part of American history that isn't often covered is that not every American was opposed to Hitler and the Nazi Party's radical ideas about race, ethnicity, and nationalism. Captain America threw a punch in the comics, and Simon and Kirby threw a gauntlet down. Their stance caught some flak, and police had to be called to provide some protection as gangs of unsavory looking folks started hanging out outside their offices.

On to Modern Times

As a whole, the comic book industry took a decline in the post-war period. It was in this post-war environment in the 60s when Stan Lee revitalized the super hero genre by appealing to older audiences.

Though Marvel Mystery Comics had their origins in the late 30's, they continued to run for over 150 issues through 1957, when Marvel Mystery Comics closed its doors. The modern run of Marvel Comics were opened shortly after, with many of the familiar characters returning under new art direction and with dynamic, modern story telling for the time.

Today, Marvel continues to enjoy great success with the blockbuster Cinematic Universe and recent comic book renaissance. From their humble beginnings as a pulp comic to the decline in the 1950s and 60s, Marvel has shown an incredible staying power through clever writers, talented artists, and excellent leadership.

Issue #5

Why is this comic book valuable?

In 1939, pulp-magazine publisher Martin Goodman expanded into the newly emerging comic book field by buying content from comics packager Funnies, Inc. His first effort, Marvel Comics #1 (cover-dated Oct. 1939), from his company Timely Publications, featured the first appearances of writer-artist Carl Burgos' android superhero, the Human Torch, and Paul Gustavson's costumed detective the Angel.[1] As well, it contained the first generally available appearance of Bill Everett's mutant anti-hero Namor the Sub-Mariner, created for the unpublished movie-theater giveaway comic Motion Picture Funnies Weekly earlier that year, with the eight-page original story now expanded by four pages. Also included were Al Anders' Western hero the Masked Raider; the jungle lord Ka-Zar the Great, with Ben Thompson beginning a five-issue adaptation of the story "King of Fang and Claw" by Bob Byrd in Goodman's pulp magazine Ka-Zar #1 (Oct. 1936);[2] the non-continuing-character story "Jungle Terror," featuring an adventurer named Ken Masters, written by the quirkily named Tohm Dixon;[3] "Now I'll Tell One", five single-panel, black-and-white gag cartoons by Fred Schwab, on the inside front cover; and a two-page prose story by Ray Gill, "Burning Rubber", about auto racing.[1] A painted cover by veteran science fiction pulp artist Frank R. Paul featured the Human Torch,[1] looking much different than in the interior story. That initial comic quickly sold out 80,000 copies, prompting Goodman to produce a second printing, cover-dated November 1939 and identical except for a black bar in the inside-front-cover indicia over the October date, and the November date added at the end. That sold approximately 800,000 copies.[4] With a hit on his hands, Goodman began assembling an in-house staff, hiring Funnies, Inc. writer-artist Joe Simon as editor. Simon brought along his collaborator, artist Jack Kirby, followed by artist Syd Shores.
