When I graduated high school,
I had an uncle and he worked for a publisher, and he told me that
they were looking for an assistant. And I figured, "Gee, I'm going to apply."
So I went up there, and I found out
they also published comic books. They had an outfit called Timely Comics, and they hired me to run errands, to proof-read,
fill the inkwell, whatever had to be done. I didn't really have any intention
to be working in comics, but it was a job. There were two guys,
Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, who were running the thing. Joe Simon was the boss
and he walked around puffing a big cigar and he talked in a very deep voice,
and he was great. I liked him
