Summary: A great blast from the past!
Comment: After a nice little introduction, this great DC archive book launches into the meat - thirteen Golden Age Plastic Man comics! With a good deal of action and humor (not to mention humorous action), Plas and his sidekick, Woozy Winks, take on the bad guys. My son and I loved this book, and thought it was a great blast from the past! We both highly recommend it!

In case you are interested, this book includes stories (in this order) from Police Comics #31 (6/1944), #32 (7/44), #33 (8/44), Plastic Man #2 (8/44), Police Comics #34 (9/44), #35 (10/44), #36 (11/44), #37 (12/44), #38 (1/45), and #39 (2/45). The funny thing is just how little World War 2 seems to have intruded into these stories! But, in a way, that helps make the stories somewhat timeless. Anyway, buy this book!

Summary: Plaz-tastic
Comment: Out of the five archives on Plastic Man to date I like this one the best (but this is not to say the rest are bad 2-5 are mearly terrific while this one is Plaz-tastic).

Jack Cole set out to just put some bread on the table but he ended up creating what I consider to be a dream on paper.

In later volumes a fleet of ghost artists takes over the adventures of the stretchable sherlock with some pretty good results but this is Cole's finest hour.l

Summary: Take a bite out of crime
Comment: Jack Cole was one of the true geniuses of the comic book art form. Here we have some great examples of his masterwork, Plastic Man. Plastic Man and his sidekick Woozy Winks are two of the greatest characters of the Golden Age of comics. Jack Cole's odd outlook on life, and his sometimes dark sense of humor, make these among the best of the superhero comics of the era. Highly recommended to superhero fans, especially those who don't them too seriously.
