After humble beginnings in the late nineteenth century, newspaper comic strips had become an important mass medium by 1920, the year of the first network radio broadcast. It didn't take radio long to become very popular. Then when newsstand comic books started appearing in the late 1930s, another new mass medium was born. All these media were voracious consumers of programming, and crossovers from one medium to another became the rule rather than the exception. CBM #119 examines the crossovers between network radio shows and comic books. Nolan's Notebook and That Wonderful Year by Michelle Nolan; Inspiration Central by Bill Baker; Collectable Character Statues by Mike Wilbur; CBM Market Reports by our Advisors; The Naiman Report by Michael Naiman; Marketplace Mail and much, much more! Magazine, PC $6.95 Cover price $6.95.
