SILVER AGE COMICS reminds us that for some reason editor Julie Schwartz refused to revive the long missing Catwoman in his Silver Age BATMAN titles. That task was perhaps surprisingly taken up by SUPERMAN editor Mort Weisinger who, in the wake of Julie Newmar’s TV success in the role, brought back the character in-of all places-an issue of LOIS LANE.

BRONZE AGE BABIES is a fun site with male and female posters that give it the atmosphere of a comics-oriented morning drive-time radio show. Here the pair, Doug and Karen, tackle the first appearance of THE DEFENDERS and even address the question I’ve wondered about for decades now. Namely, what the heck is up with that freaky artwork? Try this and then go back and read more of their blog. Good stuff.
