List of Standard Comics publications

Standard Comics[1] was an American comic book company owned by publisher Ned Pines. Standard in turn was the parent company of two comic-book lines: Better[2] and Nedor Publishing.[3] Collectors and historians sometimes refer to them collectively as "Standard/Better/Nedor".[4] In the late 1950s, Standard's remaining two titles were incorporated into the Pines Comics lineup.
