Tommy Tompkins

Born in the Golden Age heat of 1942, Tommy Tompkins made his debut in Star Spangled Comics #7 under the legendary creative hands of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby — as golden a pedigree as comics has ever produced. A DC character whose presence stretches across a remarkable span from the 1940s all the way to 2017, Tommy has proven durable enough to earn a place in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe, the ultimate roll call of DC's storied universe. With four key-issue appearances to his name and a roster of co-stars that includes the Star-Spangled Kid, Stripesy, and Scrapper, he runs in genuinely historic company. For collectors who love the texture and authenticity of the Golden Age and the characters who quietly helped build DC's foundation, Tommy Tompkins is a rewarding discovery.
