You may not be surprised to learn that most people in the comic business grew up reading comic books. However, you might be interested in knowing what they were reading. Here’s a look at “Famous Fanmail”!
Mike Friedrich wrote plenty of comics during the bronze age for both Marvel and DC. He had runs on Batman, Captain America, Captain Marvel, Justice League of America, Ka-Zar and many other titles including a nearly-three-year run on Iron Man. He got a letter printed in Fantastic Four #31 (cover date – October 1964). In the letter he proposes a question that’s been asked for decades since – “Why do super-heroes have to fight every time they bump into each other?”
