Hi there, and welcome
to the fourth issue of Crimebusters!
If you wish to donate a story(s) to this book please e-mail me at the address
below.
Dear Steve,
Had some computer problems but I'm back online.
The latest issue of Crimebusters was excellent as always. It was unique
seeing CB fight a supervillain for a change and it appears the vacuum was
a repeat offender as it were.
As for the Biro-Gleason books being talky,
Let's face it. These stories had a point to make and not much space to
make it in. The fact is the art and stories are pretty well balanced. The
art was there to tell the story unlike modern comics where the story is
often simply an excuse to present poorly drawn musclemen and women in exxagerated
poses.
-Mr. Natural
Thanks for the letter, and I'm glad
you liked the issue! I too enjoyed seeing the Vacume, and hopefully I'll
find more of his and CB's fights. As for your comments on Gleason books,
I couldn't agree more. That's what makes these stories so good. It sure
isn't your standard hero happens into crime and fights gangster/Nazi/Japanese.
There's always substance.
I
WANT
to
hear from you! Tell me what you liked/disliked, loved/hated about this
issue! If you have a request I can't promise that I can grant it but I'll
see what I can do. Just e-mail me at Steve_Rogers_Captain_America@yahoo.com
thanks!
-Steve
