paulie's THE COLLECTOR #39

Still standing-in for Paulie and hoping for his quick, and complete, recovery.

Comic books are broken down by date into 5 ages: Platinum, Golden, Silver, Bronze, and Modern. The Golden Age (1938 – 1956) is summarized as: The explosion of the superhero genre, kicked off in 1938 with the publication of Action Comics #1 and the debut of Superman. Key characteristics: Pulpy art styles, patriotic themes (as the era heavily coincided with World War II), and the creation of legendary characters like Batman, Wonder Woman, and Captain America.

Your challenge is to create a Golden Age comic book cover. It can be authentic characters of the time, or those of your own invention.
