Late in 1999, Universal Studios of Central Florida began to wind down a five year investment of transforming Orlando into one of the country's leading centers for television and film production. Though in previous years production groups regularly produced material in town to avoid the high union wages of the west coast, both at Universal and MGM Studios, high players like Viacom pulled out...taking with them the syndicated likes of Sea Quest, Super Force, Swamp Thing, Super Boy...assorted Wrestling and Roller Derby programs...a live action Tarzan show... To this day, investors and producers remain in courts The Spider! out the mess. I know little of how they did things at MGM, but I worked for a number of people stationed at Universal's 22 A building...host of some twenty-two independent companies. This sericel...and others like it... are prototypes for a product intended to be sold in a number of galleries and shops. No contracts were finalized.
For the first time, the heroes of Fawcett Comics appeared together, featuring Captain Marvel, Spy Smasher and Minute Man rendered by Mac Raboy in this beautiful scene which originally appeared in 1941 as the cover of America's Greatest Comics #1. Also this week... Archie's Betty and Veronica...Captain Marvel joins Spy Smasher and Minute Man...
