So the two men decided to pool their knowledge of the industry and their talents and start their own comics publishing company. Alas, even with their combined knowledge and energy it was not a successful endeavor and eventually they had to shut down, actually selling titles and unpublished work at bargain basement prices to the likes of Charlton Comics.
But they did manage to produce some amazing work, including the title I've now found myself adding to my collection, BULLSEYE.
