The Mighty World of Marvel (Vol.6) No.19 is in the shops now, with Black Panther on the masthead again for the second issue running. Here's the info... MIGHTY WORLD OF MARVEL #19. On sale 8th March! 76 pages of Marvel Universe adventure! Four awesome stories! £3.99! The Black Panther faces an unexpected challenge to the Wakandan throne! By Reginald Hudlin and John Romita Jr! The Champions clash with a deadly new superteam: The Freelancers! A new adventure by Jeremy Whitely and Ro Stein! The Black Widow fights a lethal final battle with her old rival Recluse! By Chris Samnee and Mark Waid! Doctor Strange takes on Baron Mordo! A 1960s Marvel classic by Steve Ditko and Stan Lee! Featuring material first published in Black Panther #2, Champions: MU #1, Black Widow #12 and Strange Tales #117. I don't know what sales have been like across the UK but last month's MWOM which began the Panther's adventures sold out quickly in towns around here. Curious then than next month, the Silver Surfer replaces him as the main star of the comic. As good as those Dan Slott/Mike Allred Silver Surfer stories are, making him the cover star is a seemingly strange move considering the Surfer isn't currently in a movie or game. It coincides with MWOM starting a new volume with a new No.1, but it would have been nice for the Panther to remain the masthead star for a little longer, considering the movie is still out and he's in Avengers Infinity in cinemas next month. That said, the Black Panther stories will continue in the new volume so fans of T'Challa should still be pleased.

According to Our Gods Wear Spandex, an interesting and detailed examination by author Christoper Knowles of the archetypal roots of comic book characters, surveys show that half of the population of the United States was reading comic books during the 1940s. Now, to be honest, I'm a bit sceptical - not necessarily about the statistic, but about the fact that someone had time to do surveys about comic book readership during that particular decade. Regardless, I recently stumbled across something that demonstrates that comic book readership at that point in time was wider than I would have thought. Here we have a copy of Batman from 1942, with a classic simple cover that puts the spotlight - literally - on Batman and the Boy Wonder. The back cover? What else but an equally classic ad for Daisy Air Rifles, every boy's dream toy? "Tell Dad to hang one of these beautiful Daisys on your Christmas Tree!" (The astute reader will note that duty is added in Canada - plus ça change...) Now here's Issue One of Namora from 1948. Certainly not as well known in the modern world as Batman, Namora is the cousin of Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner. (Sorry, that probably doesn't help the non-geeks in the audience, but just go with it.) A bit yellowed by time, but still a first issue, so probably worth some money. And the advertising on the back cover? Yes, that's right, just what you'd expect - an ad for the latest and greatest in 2 Way Stretch Girdles - in Glamorous Nude, I might add. (Extra crotches only forty-nine cents.) This is either strong evidence that comics had a readership that extended at least as far as ladies looking for support garments, or a testament to some unknown member of the advertising sales department who could probably have sold ice to Eskimos. You have to wonder, though - was there no duty on lingerie in 1948, or did they just not care about Canadian shoppers? - Sid
