Other tenants at that address were publishers Holyoke and Temerson . there is no evidence showing a direct relationship between Great Comics Publications, Inc. and any other comics publishing company. The building contained multiple office suites apart from Great Comics Inc. Great Comics Inc also used a separate distributor and had its own creative staffs.
This book was compiled with the best images currently available. That stated, these comics are eighty years old. The best efforts have been made to make the pages as enjoyable as possible but not every panel is perfect and some allowances for the age of the books need to be considered when judging the overall contents
