This week on The Corner Box, hosts John & David do a deep dive into some Famous Firsts, and talk about navigating the racism in some very old stories, the most appropriate ways to solve crimes, skipping comics with no pictures, what an anthology would look like today, and the crazy original gun ads in the books. Also, David launches another successful Kickstarter campaign, the podcast listeners get visuals, and John teases the next Sensational episode.Timestamp Segments[01:59] The Famous First Editions.[04:26] David is very stressed.[07:56] 10,000 $1 tips.[11:00] David becomes a historian.[12:42] Original comic book formats.[15:58] Does crime pay?[16:52] Racism in Detective Comics.[19:13] The Batman art.[22:36] The greatest Batman story.[24:26] Superman vs Batman origin stories.[26:37] How to solve crimes.[27:42] Batman’s cool costume.[30:00] Speed Saunders, Ace Investigator.[31:05] Buck Marshall, Range Detective.[36:59] Crimson Avenger.[37:24] Death on the Airwaves.[37:34] All the gun ads.[37:48] The Bruce Nelson art.[39:27] Dr. Fu Manchu.[41:00] Collecting stamps.[41:38] Cosmo, The Phantom of Disguise.[43:06] Plain Clothes Pete.[44:06] The concept of the book.[45:41] David’s new favorite curse.[47:35] Ads at the back of the book.[50:00] A teaser for the next episode.Notable Quotes“Crime never pays.”“You never see the lower half of the horse.”“There’s a reason why you’ve never heard of a lot of this stuff.”Relevant LinksSuper Kaiju Rock n Roller Derby Fun Time Go Book #2 | KickstarterDavid's Fun Stuff!Did Someone Say Fun Time?
