« The NEXT ISSUE PROJECT is for any fan of comics, not just fans of Golden Age books, » says editor Erik Larsen. « Often, the promise of Golden Age comics — where creators were making up the rules as they went along and were blazing new trails — was more exciting than the reality of Golden Age comics, where creators were essentially mimicking some of the same dull formulaic writing found in other mediums at the time. Everyone who contributed to CRACK COMICS #63 was intent on fulfilling the promise of the Golden Age and delivering a book that was more than a mere homage, but also a thrilling glimpse of what comics could be — if only creators were allowed to run wild with the characters they were handed! These creative dynamos jumped at the chance to present their own take on these Golden Age heroes and demonstrate comics’ true potential! »
