Samuel Maxwell “Jerry” Iger began his career as a newspaper cartoonist. In 1935 he contributed several humor strips to what is now regarded as the first comic book, Famous Funnies, which was composed mostly of reprinted newspaper comic strips in the new comic book format. Iger became the editor of the comic Wow, What a Magazine! the following year, and although it would only last four issues, it included early work by Bob Kane as well as Iger’s future partner, nineteen-year-old Will Esiner, who drew the strip Scott Dalton. ~ Drew Friedman’s Heroes of the Comics: Portraits of the Legends of Comic Books – Fantagraphics (2014)
