    (Fiction House was a big time publisher of both pulp magazines and comic books from the 1920s to the 1950s. Its comics division was best known for its pinup-style good girl art, as epitomized by the company's most popular character Sheena, Queen of the Jungle. Fiction House also launched the careers of Jack Kirby and Will Eisner as well. The publisher was also a target of Dr. Fredric Wertham's infamous book Seduction of the Innocent in 1954.
