Flatfoot Burns

Flatfoot Burns stepped onto the Golden Age comics scene in 1946, born from the creative hands of Al Stahl within the legendary pages of The Spirit — one of the most celebrated anthology titles of the era. Sharing that storied comic real estate with the likes of The Spirit himself, Lady Luck, and Brenda Banks, Flatfoot Burns keeps genuinely distinguished company. With nine catalogued appearances across a run stretching into the late 1940s and at least one collector-recognized key issue to their name, this character is a rewarding find for any serious Golden Age enthusiast digging into the rich, pulpy world that the Register and Tribune Syndicate brought to readers week after week.
