Comics in Motion are proud to be Humble Partners

Episode 3 Notes “Boomerang, Zoomerang” Lev Gleason’s Daredevil

In this episode I tackle the Golden Age Daredevil! This is a character you may not be familiar with at all. However, he had a 10 year run from 1940 to 1950 and was a quite popular character at the time. There’s a lot to unpack in this episode with recommended reading from Rudolph Hess to Pygmy Aboriginal Australians.
