Hm. I guess SK has it right but in my mind, that is all actually one story in Detective #29 and #30, so that wasn't actually what I had in mind, since #30 picks up right after #29 where Batman learns Dr. Death may still be alive. But some time has elapsed between the two stories, so I guess you could say it is two different, stand alone stories.

So I guess, SK wins! Which means that actually, this predates the Ultra-Humanite's 2nd appearance of Oct 1939, making Dr. Death the actual first recurring villain.

The character I had in mind was Tex Thompson. His major nemesis in the Golden Age was the Gorrah, who was like one of Indiana Jones enemies. The Gorrah appeared early on (Action #3?) but then also recurred in the very same issue of Action that the Ultra-Humanite recurred, #17 in Oct 1939, so he's only after the U-H by technicality since he's later in the issue.

But I'll give it to SK! Well done and great memory of the early Batman stories!

Thank you.

My question:

In Kingdom Come, a number of characters had been modeled after real life people.

Who were... 666 and the Joker's Daughter modeled after?

Shirley Manson of Garbage and Trent Renzor of Nine Inch Nails?

(I wanted to say Marilyn Manson but I kind of remember 666 being more rugged looking).

I'll give you a hint.

They are husband and wife, but they aren't a creative team together.

In the JLA Elseworlds Act of God, four heroes who had lost their powers, after rigorous training from Batman, took up new codenames.

Who were the four heroes and what were their new names?

Okay... since that question is too difficult, new one:

Which comic company published a six issue Nightmare on Elm Street series?

During Wonder Woman's mod days she went up against a trio of kinky women villains who were supposedly kinky lesbians, in order to protect an innocent runaway in a story that was a twisted allegory of Cinderella.

What was the name of the group, their individual names, and the name of the girl who was their slave.

"Them" which consisted of Top Hat, Moose Momma, and Pinto. The girl they made their slave was Cathy Perkins was who was a Wonder Woman supporting character for a very brief period of time during this era.

I like this era a lot in a 'glad it's not happening now but fun to read then' way.
