S.Paper Stock:newsprintBinding:saddle-stitchedPublishing Format:was ongoingPublication Type:magazine BLUE BOLT COMICSInitially published by Novelty Press, Blue Bolt Comics, one of the earliest comic books titled after a single character, ran 101 issues, cover-dated June 1940 to August 1951. Its namesake hero was created by writer-artist Joe Simon for Funnies Inc., one of the earliest comic-book "packagers" that produced outsourced comics on demand for publishers entering the fledgling medium. By the second issue, Simon had enlisted Jack Kirby as the series co-writer/artist, starting the first pairing of the future comic book legends who shortly thereafter created Captain America and other characters. As Simon recalled in a 1998 Comic-Con Convention panel in San Diego, California:I was doing freelance work and I had a little office in New York about ten blocks from DC Comics' and Fox {Feature Syndicate)'s offices, and I was working on Blue Bolt for Funnies Inc. So, of course, I loved Jack's work and the first time I saw it I couldn't believe what I was seeing. He asked if we could do some freelance work together. I was delighted and I took him over to my little office. We worked from the second issue of Blue Bolt...The two teamed until issue #10, turning over the book to successors including Dan Barry, Tom Gill, and Mickey Spillane (before Spillane's creation of the detective character Mike Hammer in novels).Other enduring features in Blue Bolt included Dick Cole, the Wonder Boy, Sub-Zero Man, Sgt. Spook, Old Cap Hawkin's Tales, White Rider and Super Horse, Edison Bell, Runaway Ronson, Phantom Sub, Krisko and Jasper, Fearless Fellers, and Rick Richards.As the popularity of superheroes began to fade in the post-World War II era, the character of Blue Bolt was transformed from a superhero into a plainclothes type of hero.In 1949, Novelty Press sold its assets, including Blue Bolt, to series cover artist L.B. Cole due to the growing criticism over violence in comic books. Using his new assets, Cole began his own company, Star Publications.
