It's time to go... all negro!
I will be storytiming All Negro Comics. A curious comic book from 1947, supposedly written and made only by negr... I mean, Afro-Americans. It seems they intended to make it a regular monthly, but there was ever only one issue. Sadly!
Let's do this
It's no particular genre, it's just bunch of random stuff, all with black people
First, there is a crime story.
Ace Harlem - the negro detective.
Unfortunately, all criminals in this book are black people.
Well, the dectives are not very sharp
>zombie
that's racist
....is anyone reading? I will continue posting if anyone is here
>>68037159
well nobody is here so fuck it
>>68037159
I am. This is.... Something
>>68037159
shut yo mouf and keep postin, honkey.
>>68037364
All right Anon, I am continuing then
The story of Ace Harlem continues
I expected to be terrible with just "it's all blacks" premise, but it's... all right.
It's just 40s comics. Just with black people.
>>68037159
>considering dropping a storytime after less then 10 pages
Nigga, are you for real?
>>68037505
all right all right
my pass just expired and the new recaptchas are annoying as hell
this kinda shit is why i love golden age comics
This... is kind of ridiculous to be honest
And now, an abrupt shift of tone to Dew Dillies, comics aimed at - kids, I guess
>>68037580
yeah, it's hilarious
It would have been really interesting to see the cultural effects on comics if this had become a permanent publication through the silver age.
I have no idea about their sizes
>>68037470
Aren't 2 dollar bills supposed to be lucky?
Ummm... all right
>>68037728
I'm actually from Europe so I don't have a clue
Well.
This is over at least
The necessary written story so this qualifies as "text magazine" or something, and I ain't gonna read that
And now, the story of LION MAN!!!
In AFRICA!!!!!!!!!
>>68037581
Thi is golde . This page just made my day. I guess I will behanging around[\spoiler]
Bubba, you are an asshole
>>68037852
By the way, I think this is all public domain now
anyone can make new Ace Harlem or Lion Man stories
fucking Bubba again
The only two white people in this comics are villains.
Fucking SJW.
>>68037895
Oh boy... I guess I have new project now...
>>68037956
look it up before you do it
But I believe nobody touched these characters since then and the copyright expired
BLACK POWER
BUBBA, NOT AGAIN
>next issue
:-(
And now, have some comedy
>>68038113
forgot my pic
(I hate the new captcha)
>they know they are in comics
Suck it, Grant

hahaha
DON'T DO CRIME, KIDS
Aaaand that's it.
Next issue never came out.
And then all the civil right stuff happened.

According to internet, the creator of All Negro died in 1971, in the age 68

Other comics with the name "Negro" in 1940s were Fawcett's "Negro Romance" and Parents Magazine Institute’s "Negro Heroes", all short-lived.
This was one of the most fascinating storytimes I've ever seen
Thanks, OP
>>68038442
I am thinking of downloading Negro Heroes; I am not sure if it was ever scanned
Awesome. Ace Harlem was fucking based.
They got their mileage out of that 'Ample' gag.
thanks anon
>>68038485
Negro Heroes seems to be just a comics about famous black people at the time, not about super-heroes
Yeah, I am not downloading that.
And sure, I would love to read more Ace Harlem
>>68037036
>Ace Harlem, famed negro detective
gold
>>68037159
I'm reading.
>>68039573
Unfortunately I am done posting, there was never more than one issue
always loved how ace harlem was a white dude with blue skin
This is genuine mup da doo didda shit, and it's great.
I think Lion Man is really neat. Can we get rid of Black Panther and replace him with this guy?
>>68037998
Just look at that glare. Fucking nice. Honky gonna get told.
Something something, Crisis on Infinite Negros

>li'l dew dillies
>>68036961
I like how the president of the company looks like he'd rather be doing fucking anything but introducing this comic right now
>>68038069
Always bet on black.
>>68037981
>lion man tries to be friendly
>THIS PLACE IS FORBIDDEN
what
>>68037556
>WHERE YOU AT
So weird that these speech patterns are basically just like modern ones. I'm so used to '40s speech sounding weird, and '40s black speech sounding embarrassingly racist. Must be because finally black dialogue is actually being written by a black person.

>>68037488
I love how different the lingo from the 40s is.
>>68037581
That's the golden age for you. From what I've seen, around the 50s they managed to get a decent deegree of quality going... only to be killed by the CCA.
>>68037945
They are not white.
They are Russians.
>>68038158
oh look, it's Samuel L. Jackson from "Django"!
>>68037036
>Ace Harlem is clearly just a white guy colored brown
>>68037488
>Hep-cats
Oooh I like that. We should bring that back.
If this shit is public domain I'm gonna do something with it. Don't know what, but something.
>>68037619
34 when?

Well he is on the side of the law
That was quite interesting. Thanks!
>>68038057
Oh god, that's great
>>68038232
Hi I'm daisy
I feel really bad about this. We call this offensive and weird today, but this was an honest attempt s tbgiving black artists a voice back in the day.
The fact that it got cancelled because white racists strangled it is disheartening.
>>68038291
The reason it never came out? once paper suppliers (owned by rich, white men) realized that the magazine was black owned and operated, their supplies of paper mysteriously dried up. A second issue was completely ready to go, but there was nothing to print it on.
>>68045180
Why didn't they just turn go to theblackmarket?
>>68037470
Well, it is made by black people, who were presumably sick of not getting to be normal in comics.
>>68037581
Yeah, fuck you, physics!
someone needs to bring back Ace Harlem, also a crossover between Lion Man, and Fantomah is very much needed
historical bump
>>68037159
I'm reading brotha.
This is kind of interesting. Racist, but interesting.
>>68046591
not much has changed in comics. They are represented more in comics, but all the writers and artists are white, thus black people acting like wiggers
This is very much something I'd like to see more of.
