GREAT COMIC BOOK HEROES SC B&W. (Jules Feiffer) In 1965, Feiffer wrote what is arguably the first critical history of the comic book super-heroes of the late '30s and early '40s, including Plastic Man, Batman, The Spirit and others. Feiffer discusses the role that the patriotic superhero played during World War II in shaping the public spirit of civilians and soldiers, as well as the escapist power these stories held over the zeitgeist of America. 80 pp.
