rare, Quinlan cvrA playful entry into the Catman series, this cover shows the feline hero and Kitten crashing through the page with cherubic glee as Charles Quinlan lightens the mood in an attempt to appeal to younger readers, a move made by many publishers in order to sell more copies of their product in the cutthroat world of the Golden Age comic industry. The addition of the new "Little Leaders" feature was a further beckon to the youth crowd that filled out the back pages of the series until its cancellation.
This restored copy of Catman #11 has the appeal of a comic that has truly been cherished and loved by an enthusiastic youngster, retaining its charm while being read and reread over the years, perhaps by generations of curious comic connoisseurs. This issue should be available to a wide swath of collectors who are looking to own a little piece of the Golden Age for themselves.
