Each week, the pop culture website Pop-A-Looza shares some posts from my vast 'n' captivating Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) archivers. The latest shared post is another dip into the files of The Everlasting First, with quick takes on my introductions to the Beau Brummels, Chuck Berry, the Black Canary, Blackhawk, Blondie, and The Brave And The Bold.
For a little bit of further Boppin' reading related to these individual subjects, I direct you to these other posts:
THE BEAU BRUMMELS [Sal Valentino interview]
CHUCK BERRY [a Greatest Record Ever Made! celebration of "Promised Land"]
THE BLACK CANARY [a 100-Page FAKE!]
BLACKHAWK [I have yet to write anything of substance about Blackhawk; this takes you instead to my history of DC Comics' 100-Page Super Spectaculars, which was where I first developed an appreciation of the character]
BLONDIE [my discovery of punk in the pages of Phonograph Record Magazine]
THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD [my fantasy of writing a twelve-issue B&B run]
Every story starts somewhere, The beginnings of my stories with each of these epic musical acts and comic-book entities provide the latest Boppin' Pop-A-Looza.
