“I am loving these books. What a treat it is to see the earliest days of E.C. Segar’s Thimble Theatre, and to watch it grow into the wonder it became. Kurtis Findlay’s Origin Comics is a great new addition to the ranks of classic comics publishers, and I’m eager for more.”
—Kurt Busiek (Astro City, JLA/Avengers)
