Publisher profile coming soon
The birth of superheroes. Superman, Batman, Captain America, and Wonder Woman debut. Comics became a mass medium.
Extreme scarcity drives value. Condition sensitivity is paramount — even low-grade copies of key issues command five figures.
A pricing discrepancy between an auction listing and the prevailing cleared consensus value across organized exchanges, allowing rapid liquidity capture before market equilibrium reconverges.
When the famous icthyologist Professor Moran's expedition to the Pacific Ocean disappears, his friend Professor Moresby recruits the Shining Knight to embark on a search, and Sir Justin bring along his friends, the Seven Soldiers of Victory. As the museum's steamship begins to encounter a storm, Wing spots a ghostly-looking, glowing, orange, sailing ship, and as their own ship comes about to approach it, the steamer runs aground on some unseen rocks. A powerful storm strikes, as the engines are reversed, but it is too late to get the ship free of the reef, the hull breaks apart, and the heroes are hard put to survive the night, clinging to broken spars, flotsam, and one lifeboat.

The Law's Legionnaires have been summoned by a friend of Justin to discover the whereabouts of one Professor Moran, whose museum expedition in the Pacific has vanished. Unfortunately, their search ends up with them being shipwrecked at sea.
Washing up ashore on a strange isle, the Crimson Avenger and Speedy go about building an abode for themselves, then set out to look for the other Legionnaires. They run into a bunch of thugs, who capture them and leave them to drown while they make themselves comfortable in the home our two heroes had constructed. Once captured, the two leave them to search out their mysterious leader: The King.
Green Arrow and Vigilante come ashore on an island and not only discover an aquarium, but a notorious criminal named Baby-Face Johnson. The outlaw is told by a member of his gang that a group of scientists are on another island and are collecting rare samples of fish, and King Baby-Face decides to do something about it.
Wing and Stripesy are rescued and resuscitated by local inhabitants of one of the islands but quickly must face the King and his minions, who overcome the two.
The Knight and the Kid arrive aboard Winged Victory in time to help stop criminals threatening Professor Moran and his museum expedition but are captured until the Professor's "fish-catching device" saves the day.
William and Jonathan show up to save Wing and Stripesy from being shot, and discover the King doesn't own the islands as he said, and were using the two as slave laborers for his own benefit. Then the Kid and the Shining Knight show up to corral some of the other villains, but poor Professor Moran is overcome by the King, who then makes plans to take care of the Legionnaires when they show up.
The Legionnaires re-group and head into battle against Baby-Face Johnson and his gang, who, once captured, are put to hard labor, working for Jonathan and William.
Superman encourages kids to help save waste paper to help the war effort.
