Brenda Starr (Reporter) by Dale Messick (0090-) 1st Appearance June 30th, 1940 - Brenda Starr was something entirely new on the comics scene when it first appeared on June 30, 1940. Here was a strip with a strong career-minded heroine who was the center of the adventure, not just the victim of it. The creation of Dale Messick was to become a role-model of the jetset girl.  Brenda Starr was a great continuity strip with an extraordinary combination of soap opera (usually in one of Brenda's many love affairs) and adventure (through her around-the-world assignments). The love of her life, Basil St. John was an off-and-on affair marred by the tragedy of his flawed physical condition, and his own reluctance to commit to Brenda. The strip took full advantage of the feminist movement in the 60’s to portray Brenda as the prototypical autonomous female of the age and continues to today.  In my mind, Brenda Starr has a thinner following that the quality of the strip deserves. The Paper doll strips of the the 1940's & 50's are classic and very highly sought-after. Continuity runs from the early era are also quite rare, because the early strips were usually printed in Comic-book style insert format. Those inserts are rarely broken up and sell at a premium on their own. Thus the difficulty in obtaining continuous sets. Dailies sell quite well also.

Brick Bradford by William Ritt & Clarence Gray (0095-) 1st Appearance August 21st, 1933,  1st Sunday November 24th, 1934 - William Ritt and Clarence Gray created Brick Bradford on August 21, 1933, some 5 months before the introduction of Flash Gordon into the comics. Thus comes the confusion that Brick Bradford was a Flash Gordon copy, in fact it was an ingenious work of it’s own.  Brick Bradford was an adventurer by trade. His exploits took him around the world and even into space. Clarence Gray’s panoramic artwork was typical of the superhero genre of the 30’s and 40’s. Always shooting for the excitement of new places and scientific discoveries, Brick Bradford lasted for over 50 years into the late 1980’s.  Brick Bradford has a strong following, especially in Europe where adventure strips are still alive and well. Mostly offered as a tabloid, monthly runs don’t last very long unsold.  Dailies also get gobbled up quickly.
