Ep.39. What Comics Did Siegel and Shuster Work On After Creating Superman? by Alex Grand

Siegel and Shuster signed a 10 year Superman contract with National Publications’ Harry Donnenfeld and his right hand man who eventually took over, Jack Liebowitz. When that 10 year contract was coming to a close, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster hired an attorney Albert Zugsmith for the rights to Superman who invariably set forth a chain of events which caused the two co-creators to lose all rights to the character. That begins this episode of what they did after Superman. What did they do next? What comics were they involved in moving forward? Nights of Horror, Ziff-Davis, Mighty Crusaders, Human Torch, Gold Key, Owl, Tiger Girl, Disney Comics, Eclipse, Starling, and more!
