Set Description:

Startling Comics ran for 53 issues from 1940 through 1948. It began with some very pulpy covers featuring Captain Future who was a pulp character although this Captain Future was a different guy. See the description of issue #1 to see how this Captain Future had something in common with the Incredible Hulk and the FF.

Not sure where I would rank this with the other Nedor/Better/Standard titles, I'm trying to complete. It would be ahead of Thrilling mainly because I'm not a huge Commando Cubs fan. But the sci-fi covers toward the end of run on this series were nothing less than spectacular. Issue #49 gets its deserved due but goodness some of the other one are fabulous as well.

The war covers by Schomburg were great as usual. Fighting Yank of course got his start in this title with issue #10 - a tough book that as of now has eluded me. In addition to that issue, I lack about 20 others to complete this run so I am over 50% of the way there.
