I knew I forgot a genre for DC to explore. Besides westerns, SF, horror, romance, and humor, there's detectives/cops/spys. The plain-clothes tough-guy, fighting in the wretched dens of scum and villainy at home and around the globe.

I know Siegel & Schuster created him, but who continued the art chores for all those years?

You know, I've only read the Slam Bangadventures from New York World's Fairand the two facsimile reprints of Detective Comics.

I sort of liked the stories but never thought of it as a major series.
