Welcome back to another Retro Review! This week I’ve brought up from the comic book vault; Demon Hunter # 1, from Atlas/Seaboard Comics. It’s actually the one and only issue published, as the second issue never saw the light of day, as Atlas Comics collapsed only months after this first issue was published! But that doesn’t mean that this…

This week’s RETRO REVIEW looks at DC Comics’ Doom Patrol # 104, cover dated June 1966. It features a rare wedding in a comic book, between two comic book characters.

This week we’re looking at another cool Silver Age comic; Daredevil # 43 from Marvel Comics.
