Silver Streak himself was actually something of an afterthought. A hero by that name didn’t even exist when Arthur Bernhardt published the first issue of Silver Streak in December 1939.

We at Dark Horse Comics celebrate the history of comics and like to share that history with our fans. Since last year, we have been sharing the old Crime Does Not Pay series that almost defines the Pre-Code Authority era of comics. Such bizarre tales in these collections. And we have some very special people who understand the history of comics all to well. We'll be bringing you these Introductions to our Archive editions to show you where this industry came from. Enjoy.

By the time I was born, many of the things I would one day grow to love were already gone. Hammer films, film noir, EC Comics—all distant memories while I was coming through the birth canal.

“She was giving me a bad time,” Bob Wood told the New York cops. He’d just murdered a divorced woman by beating her to death with an electric iron in a Gramercy Park hotel—the bloody punctuation mark at the end of a tawdry eleven-day affair.

Space Family Robinson is the best archive being printed at Dark Horse right now. No, I have not gone far enough--the world! If we had the ability to transmit digital copies into the depths of space, it would be the best archive in the universe.
