- Alter Ego was one of the earliest superhero comics fanzines, founded in 1961 by Jerry Bails and later taken over by Roy Thomas. By providing a massive amount of information, interviews and art about the comics and creators of comic books (mainly from the period 1938–1970), Alter Ego is credited with helping to create a vibrant community of comics enthusiasts that came to play a large role in the evolution of the comics industry, especially during its "Silver Age."
