This past week I read the DC Comics 1988 mini-series “The Weird”. With the Big Two publishers, I have been recently gravitating to stand-alone stories and so I discovered this four-issue mini-series.

I dug out the 1976 book, ‘Secret Origins of the Super DC Heroes. It is mostly a collection of reprinted origin comics of 10 major DC characters back in the ’30s and ’40s.

The artwork, writing style, and layout of the panels are great examples of the golden age of comics. The book contains 18 reprinted stories. These are always fun and nostalgic reads.
