-artist
Will Eisner
, at Victor Fox's request for a hero to mimic the newly created hit Superman
, created the superhero
Wonder Man
for Fox's first publication, Wonder Comics #1 (May 1939), signing his work "Willis". Eisner said in interviews throughout his later life that he had protested the derivative nature of the character and story, and that when subpoenaed after National Periodical Publications, the company that would evolve into DC Comics
, sued Fox, alleging Wonder Man was an illegal copy of Superman, Eisner testified that this was so, undermining Fox's case; Eisner even depicts himself doing so in his semi-autobiographical graphic novel The Dreamer. However, a transcript of the proceeding, uncovered by comics historian Ken Quattro in 2010, indicates Eisner in fact supported Fox and claimed Wonder Man as an original Eisner creation.
After losing at trial, Victor Fox dropped Eisner & Iger and hired his own stable of comic creators, beginning with a New York Times classified ad on Dec. 2, 1939. Joe Simon
, a former Eisner & Iger freelancer, became Fox Publications' editor
.
As one of the earliest companies in the emerging field, it employed or bought the packaged material of a huge number of Golden Age greats, many at the start of their careers. Lou Fine
created the superhero The Flame in Wonderworld Comics; Dick Briefer
created Rex Dexter of Mars in the eponymous series. George Tuska
did his first comics work here with the features "Zanzibar" (Mystery Men Comics #1, Aug. 1939) and "Tom Barry" (Wonderworld Comics #4). Fletcher Hanks
wrote and drew Stardust the Super Wizard
in Fantastic Comics in 1939 and 1940. Matt Baker, one of the few African-American comic book artists of the Golden Age, revamped — in more than one sense — the newly acquired Quality Comics
character Phantom Lady
' in 1947, creating one of the most memorable and controversial examples of superhero "good girl art
".
Future comics legend Jack Kirby
, brought on staff here after freelancing for Eisner & Iger, wrote and drew the syndicated
newspaper
comic strip
The Blue Beetle (starting Jan. 1940), starring a character created by Charles Nicholas Wojtkowski
in Mystery Men Comics #1 (Aug. 1939). Kirby retained the house name "Charles Nicholas" for the comic strip, which lasted three months. Kirby, additionally, created and did one story each of the Fox features "Wing Turner" (Mystery Men #10, May 1940) and "Cosmic Carson" (Science Comics #4, same month).
Throughout the 1940s, Fox produced comics in a typically wide variety of genres, but was best known for superheroes and humor. With the post-war decline in superheroes' popularity, Fox, like other publishers, concentrated on horror and crime comics
, including some of the most notorious of the latter. Following the establishment of Comics Code Authority
in the mid-1950s, Fox went out of business, selling the rights to the Blue Beetle to Charlton Comics
.
in New York City
when he was indicted on Nov. 27, 1929 for mail fraud and related illegal "boiler room" activities. It appears unrecorded whether this resulted in a conviction.
Historian Jon Berk has written that Fox went on to become an accountant
/bookkeeper at the publishing
firm that would become DC Comics
, where he was privy to sales figures that convinced him to launch his own comic-book company. Fellow historian Gerard Jones
, writing in his book Men of Tomorrow: Geeks, Gangsters, and the Birth of the Comic Book, was unable to find documentation of this.
Joe Simon on Victor Fox : "He was an accountant for DC Comics. He was doing the sales figures and he liked what he saw. So, he moved downstairs and started his own company.... I happened to get a job; I went over to Fox and became editor there, which was just an impossible job, because ... there were no artists, no writers, no editors, no letterers — nothing there. Everything came out of the Eisner and Iger shop. ... He was a very strange character. He had kind of a British accent; he was like 5'2", told us he was a former ballroom dancer. He was very loud, menacing, and really a scary little guy. He used to say, 'I'm the King of the Comics. I'm the King of the Comics. I'm the King of the Comics.' We couldn't stop him".
Joe Simon The man was insane, absolutely insane. He would go off on a speech like, “I’m the King of the Comics, and I’m not playing school here with chalk on the blackboard, I’ve got millions of dollars tied up in this business!…The man was mad.” He was a “short, round, nattily dressed man in his late forties, with a rasping voice that would shrill to frightening crescendos when he was excited. And he was excited often.”
Will Eisner “Fox was a very, very shifty, fast-footed business man who would create fictitious names because he was always afraid of being sued.”
Al Feldstein Fox was “coarsely gruff,”, “with horn rimmed glasses and a permanent cigar clamped between his teeth.” “He was the personification of a typical exploiting comic book publisher of his day - grinding out shameless imitations of successful titles and trends, and treating his artists and editors like dirt.”
Nicky Wright: "Competing well in the 'most sexy, sadistic, and violent' category, Victor Fox’s Murder Incorporated and Blue Beetle
are noteworthy.... When historians describe sleaze, sex, and violence as Fox’s obsession, they are masters of understatement. His best artists, Jack Kamen and Matt Baker, are much revered and collected for their good girl art. (Of special note is the company’s breasty crime-fighter-in-bedroom-lingerie, Phantom Lady
...along with the wild and scantily attired Rulah, Jungle Goddess.)"
Boyd Magers: "Never one to overlook a secondary sale, Fox often repackaged four remaindered (unsold) comics into a 25¢ Giant with a new cover, hence Hoot Gibson's Western Roundup, 132 pages dated 1950. However, since Fox always started their stories on the inside front cover (where other publishers ran an ad), these repackaged comics are always missing the first page of story content. Also, since Fox used remaindered issues, contents will vary from copy to copy of Hoot Gibson's Western Roundup."

Jack Kirby: "Victor Fox was a character. He'd look up at the ceiling with a big cigar, this little fellow, very broad, going back and forth with his hands behind his back saying, 'I'm the King of Comics! I'm the King of Comics!' and we would watch him and, of course, smile a little because he was a genuine type".Joe Simon on Victor Fox : "He was an accountant for DC Comics.
