Dark Horse Comics Trademarks Silver Streak

Dark Horse Comics Trademarks Silver Streak

Silver Streak Comics was originally published by Arthur Bernhardt's Rhoda Publications in 1940, names after the publisher's  Pontiac model of car.

With issue #3, the title was taken over by Lev Gleason Publications and a character named Silver Streak first appeared.

Created by Joe Simon, he was the second superhero speedster after the Golden Age Flash.

The comic would also feature the 1940s character The Daredevil, recently revived alongside Silver Streak by Erik Larsen in Savage Dragon, as public domain characters.

19944

Now, it seems, that Dark Horse Comics – who have published a number of Silver Streak archive collections, have registered a trademark for the name. Purely for the archives? Are there plans to publish a new series by that name?

Time will tell…
