Editorial

Welcome back to the 22nd issue of Good Guys & Gals of the Golden Age of Comics. This issue features 22 characters from around the world for our first issue for 2004. We have striven to bring you the best that we can offer over the years and this year is going to be no different. We will always do what we can to bring a worthwhile issue(s) to you, the viewer. In this year of 2004 we will be doing only 3 issue of Good Guys & Gals of the Golden Age of Comics, but like this issue having 22 featured characters, issue # 23 will have 23 characters and issue # 24 will have a whopping 60 characters! Add it all up and you end up with a total of 105 characters in one year! If we had done "regular" quarterly issues with 20 characters each you would have only had 80 characters this year, instead within the three issues we are doing this year you will get an additional 25 characters, pretty cool eh? Of course we will be doing the regular deal with Greats of the Golden Age of Comics which is, 12 monthly issues. We will have 2 "specials" this year, next months Quality Special and one other, (which we will tell you about in issue # 23!), and we will also have two "Spotlight" issues this year, one will feature the RETRO type characters that we use to do every now and again, and the other one will be an "ALL VILLAIN / VILLAINESS" issue later in the year. As you can see we have a lot planned this year, and along with Darrin Wiltshire's and Anthony Bernardo's help and support, plus the smashing covers that 'Diamond' Dave Ellis has pumped out lately, we think it should be a pretty darn good year! Here is a small look at the line-up for issue # 23 coming in late April/early May.

1) Bulldog Denny (Prize/Crestwood Pub.)
2) (The) Cat (French - foreign)
3) Crimson Comet (AU - Foreign)
