Red Arrow is correct even though I mis-spelt Static

Captain Marvel is the correct answer. Too bad the lawsuit and anti-comic book sentiment caused Fawcett to get out of the super-hero business. Outdoor Miner is up.

Real Fact Comics #6 is famous for being the first appearance of Tommy Tomorrow. It's also famous for having a letter column appearance by someone who would become an award-winning science fiction author. Name that author.

Total guess since it's the first name that popped into my head: Ray Bradbury?

No to all.
Hint: He's had some comic book work published recently.

Stephen King? (more of a horror guy, than a sci-fi guy...)

Okay, so he must be old enough to have had a letter published in a comic in the late forties (which means probably born at least before 1940), but presumably he's still alive if he's had comic work published recently.
Hmm... everyone I can think of seems to be either too young or dead.

There's another good candidate who's name escaped me when I guessed King, but I have to wait 'til OM confirms or denies, dammit! I think my next guess is right, but I'm afraid someone else will get it first!

Indeed it is correct.
Ellison recently had a story published in The Spirit.
Great job, Blacula. You're up!

What DC character originally went by the craptacular name Slagger for their first one or two appearances?

The childhood friend Exnihil never had.
