Talk:Joe Giella

Re: First publication
From Wikipedia's article about Joe: His first professional work, he said in a 2012 interview, was on the humor feature "Captain Codfish", which one writer described as "a less-eccentric 1940s ancestor of SpongeBob SquarePants", for Hillman Periodicals. "I was 17, and when your parents are struggling to keep the house going, the first son in the family, especially in an Italian family, had to go to work."[2] A standard reference, the Grand Comics Database, lists one "Captain Codfish" feature, in Hillman's Punch and Judy Comics #11 (cover-dated June 1946).[3]
