Justice League of America or JLA

The JLA (Justice League of America) goes back to the Silver Age of comics for it's inception. First shown as a team in 1960 the original members included Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Martian Manhunter. Throughout the decades a variety of other Superheroes have joined the team to right the wrongs of the world. I particularly like the JLA comics in the graphic novel format from the 1990's that Grant Morrison worked on.

Tonto - Lone Ranger's Buddy

Tonto, the Lone Ranger's pal and companion got his own story in comic book form beginning in 1951. The story line lasted for 31 issues and was published by Dell. The cover on this comic doesn't look anything like the Tonto I remember played on TV by Jay Silverheels back in the 1950's.

Did you know that back in 1939 when The Lone Ranger first became a radio show that Tonto saved The Lone Ranger after he was left for dead by outlaws and nursed him back to health? Turns out that Tonto and The Lone Ranger were childhood friends and that The Lone Ranger had saved Tonto after a massacre of his tribe when he was a child. Tonto gave a ring to the masked man and that was the way that he could always make sure that it was his friend.
