MILLIE THE MODEL

This time Millie appears on television with an Edward R. Murrow character. And this time Stan Lee's name is on the front page, while Dan DeCarlo's name is on the last page. Originally published in 1957.

Allen Smith: Page from A Date with Millie #2 from 1959. Who says Stan Lee wasn't an artist? There's his name right on the page. Alone. All by itself. With no mention of an artist. (Actually, Stan Goldberg per the Grand Comics Database.) Goldberg was a pretty solid cartoonist.

Recently I put a couple of early fifties stories from TALES OF SUSPENSE and STRANGE TALES on this blog that didn't even have Stan Lee's name on them, just the artists' names. Somehow I'd forgotten that a few years later they were putting out comics credited to Stan Lee alone.

SHOWGIRLS Page By Dan DeCarlo

A Dan DeCarlo page from SHOWGIRLS. SHOWGIRLS was a Marvel ( Atlas at that point ) comic book with all their pretty girl characters together-  Millie The Model, Sherry The Showgirl, Chili, Hazel, and My Girl Pearl. My Girl Pearl was actually their later version of "My Friend Irma" after they no longer called her by that name. Which presumably was to avoid having to pay to use the Irma name.

This story's signed by "Stan and Dan". Stan must have gotten to where he was feeling generous later on - they were only signed "Stan" to begin with.

Millie The Model #50

This story was originally published in MILLIE THE MODEL #50 in January 1954. Art is by Dan DeCarlo. The story has Stan Lee's name on it and nobody else's, which is sort of typical for Stan Lee.

Millie The Model

Marvel comics used to act as if Millie the Model was something of a joke. Actually the Millie the Model comic books were the only ones I sold that I made much money on.

Millie The Model

An early Millie The Model from 1949, by Stan Lee and Dan DeCarlo. Stan Lee signed the first page and Dan DeCarlo signed the last page. It figures. Stan Lee always did try to take most of the credit for everything.

The "editorial consultant" credit seems to have a response to comic book critics such as Dr. Wertham. It was there to reassure parents that these comics were suitable for children. You see the same sort of credit on Captain America comic books from the same period.

Millie The Model was a very successful title and ran for years, although I can remember that Marvel comics acted like it was a joke. I also remember that Millie The Model was the only comic book I ever made very much money on. So Millie The Model is still popular even today.
