After the success of Superman in 1938, dozens of new publishers sprang up and unleashed hundreds of new super heroes on the comic readers of the Golden Age.  After the end of World War II, however, super heroes fell out of favor with readers.  As quickly as they had arrived, the majority of these heroes and their publishers disappreared.  Copyrights were not protected as adamantly in those days, and many of these characters and their adventures have since fallen into the Public Domain. 

This allows any publisher or creator to use the characters and the original Golden Age material anyway they wish.  AC Comics was one of the first publishers to capitalize on this, by both reprinting Golden Age classics and incorporating these "forgotten" heroes into their new material as well.  Other publishers have also taken to the idea and have created new universes featuring these characters, sometimes focusing on the characters of only one company, and other times picking the best characters from several companies.Which would YOU revive?

U.S. Jones (Fox)

I think Yankee Doodle Jones would be interesting, his weird potential of being both a patriotic superhero, and a sort of Frankenstein Monster has, I think, potential.

By the way, just recently I have just put up profiles of two other 40s superheroes, Centaur’s The Blue Lady & Nightshade, who have yet to be dusted off and used again.         

For me it would be the Green Lama, but he'd have to get a new moniker .  Seems like a pretty cool character, but seems to be stuck with a stupid name.

Check out The King of Darkness, that is one seriously weird / messed up idea for a superhero.  
 
Or superjerk, as in one of the only three stories he appeared in, as he is speeding down the road creating total darkness around himself and his car, and sees that one car has almost flipped over running into a telephone pole, his only reaction is is comment "well, I seem to be causing quite a commotion,' and drive on without helping.

Popeye goes into the public domain in the next few years I believe, it'd be interesting to do something with him when that happens

I think that if it weren't for the current Green Arrow book that something really cool could be done with Robin Hood

" How exactly does a comic book character become public domain?  Because I know a lot of those Fawcett and Charlton characters have been used recently. "

" I think that if it weren't for the current Green Arrow book that something really cool could be done with Robin Hood "

I think Undercover Girl would be a good character. She was supposedly a super spy type character. You might have to change the name, though.

" @turok   Thanks. "

What about a superhero team called the ''Fawcett Heroes''? That could be nice...
