In his own words, this is the life of Joe Simon, one of the most important figures in comics history and half of the famous creative team Simon and Kirby.

At last, the classic 1940s Super Hero series by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby is collected from the pages of WORLD'S FINEST COMICS #6-7, ADVENTURE COMICS #72-97, #100-102 (1942-1946) and SANDMAN #1, the comic that reunited Simon & Kirby in 1974!

One of the most popular of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby's "kid gang" comics, the Boy Commandos were an international team of kids dedicated to fighting the "Ratzis."

In the late 1940s, Joe Simon and Jack Kirby set the comics world on fire with the creation of a genre that resulted in some of the best-selling American comic books of all time: the romance comics. The stories they created were exciting, innovative, and beautifully drawn, and remain a high point in both artists' careers.
