Not So Great Comics is a fanzine about the curious publishers from the Golden Age, Great Comics Publishing. For a few months from 1941-1942, they had two anthology titles, Great Comics and Choice Comics. They both featured the weirdest assortment of superheroes. This includes The Great Zarro, Kangaroo Man, Futuro, The Secret Circle, Fire-Eater, Madame Strange, and Atlas The Mighty. They also had tales of action and adventure, along with funnies, plus some of the dumbest deals ever offered. Comics historian Jer Alford compiled this fanzine from the Stupid Comics retrospective website. Not So Great Comics is a look back at one of the most absurd comics runs of all time.
