And copying is the sincerest form of flattery for those that were “inspired” by someone else. I guess it’s all over the place without having to look too hard. Thanks for entertaining my naïveté... You will see tons of this. I know there has been a discussion here somewhere of all the pulp cover swipes. There are several and the Planet 58 is the clearest one.

You should expect them. Mort Weisinger was the editor for Superman related titles. " Weisinger moved on; he took a job with the Standard Magazine chain, publisher of a range of pulp magazines. Standard had acquired writer-publisher Hugo Gernsback's defunct Wonder Stories and added it to Standard series of "Thrilling" publications (Thrilling Detective, Thrilling Western, and others). Weisinger became the editor of Thrilling Wonder Stories,[4] and bought stories by Hamilton and others from his former partner Schwartz. Weisinger was soon editing a range of other pulps by Standard, including Startling Stories and Captain Future, and "was in charge of no fewer than 40 titles" by 1940" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
