Born on this day in 1919: prolific comic book scripter and magazine writer (and occasional colorist!)
Joe Gill, who at Charlton co-created Captain Atom, Peacemaker, Judomaster, Doomsday + 1, Zaza the Mystic (and many more)! Series he's written include
Captain America Comics, Kid Colt Outlaw, The Secret Six, Hot Wheels, Ghostly Tales, Fightin' Army, Six-Gun Heroes, The Many Ghosts of Dr. Graves and others, including many collaborations with Steve Ditko! And, as it looks like from this, Popeye.
from Popeye (1972 series) #E-14 [Popeye and Fine Arts and Humanities Careers] (King Features, 1973), script by Joe Gill, pencils by Paul Fung Jr.
Happy birthday, Joe! And tell that bum workmaster Popeye that
all genders enjoy funny comics, love comics, war comics and superhero comics. What's not to like...they're
comics, and they oughta be
fun!

Popeye knows. He is, after all, amphibious!
