MEET LEV GLEASON,
A REAL-LIFE COMICS
SUPERHERO!
Gleason was a titan among Golden Age
comics publishers who fought back
against the censorship campaigns and
paranoia of the Red Scare. After
dropping out of Harvard to fight in
France, Gleason moved to New York
City and eventually made it big with
groundbreaking titles like Daredevil
and Crime Does Not Pay.
Brett Dakin, Gleason's great-nephew,
opens up the family archives-and
the files of the FBI-to take you on a
journey through the publisher's life
and career. In American Daredevil,
you'll learn the truth about Gleason's
rapid rise to the top of comics,
unapologetic progressive activism,
and sudden fall from grace.
Whether it was Dr. Frederic Wertham
and Seduction of the Innocent or
the House Un-American Activities
Committee, Gleason was always
ready to take on the enemy.
