Eisner-Iger Studio : ウィキペディア英語版
Eisner & Iger

Eisner & Iger was a comic book "packager" that produced comics on demand for publishers entering the new medium during the late-1930s and 1940s period fans and historians call the Golden Age of Comic Books. Many of comic books' most significant creators, including Jack Kirby, entered the field through its doors.
The company, formally titled the Eisner and Iger Studio, was also known as Syndicated Features Corporation.〔 Will Eisner, in a 1997 interviewed, referred to the company as both "Eisner & Iger" and the "Art Syndication Company".〔(Eisner interview ), ''Jack Kirby Collector'' #June 16, 1997〕 It existed from 1936–1939. In addition to comic books, the company also sold color comic strips, such as ''Adventures of the Red Mask'' and ''Pop's Night Out'', to newspapers.
Its origin has been recounted by its namesakes, Will Eisner and Jerry Iger, in highly different ways,〔Jones, Gerard, ''Men of Tomorrow: Geeks, Gangsters and the Birth of the Comic Book'' (Basic Books; 2004 hardcover ISBN 0-465-03656-2; 2005 trade paperback ISBN 0-465-03657-0) favors the Eisner account. Steranko, Jim, ''The Steranko History of Comics 2'' (Supergraphics, 1972) gives an Eisner-like account with different details: "When ''Wow'' folded in 1937, Eisner put up his talent and $35 to form a partnership with Jerry Iger. They opened an office on Madison Avenue and 53rd Street...." (p.112)〕 each given below, in alphabetical order.
Eisner & Iger was formed to service the emerging market for American comic books, which had originated in the early '30s as tabloid-sized magazines that reprinted newspaper comic strips, adding color to black-and-white daily comics. By 1935, sporadic new material was beginning to be created for them. One such seminal comic book, ''Wow, What a Magazine!'' was edited by Samuel Maxwell "Jerry" Iger, a former cartoonist. ''Wow'', which folded after issue #4 (Nov. 1936), brought Iger together with a 19-year-old Will Eisner – the future creator of ''The Spirit'' and some of the earliest and most influential graphic novels – who wrote and drew the adventure feature "Scott Dalton", the pirate feature "The Flame", and the secret agent feature "Harry Karry" for ''Wow''.

==Will Eisner account==
According to Eisner, the demise of ''Wow'' prompted him to suggest that he and the out-of-work Iger form a partnership to produce new comics, anticipating that the well of available reprints would soon run dry. He said that in late 1936,〔Eisner interview, ''Alter Ego'' #48 (May 2005), p. 7〕 the two formed Eisner & Iger, one of the first comics packagers. Iger was 32; Eisner claimed to be 25 so as not to scare Iger off.
As Eisner recounted,
Renting a one-room office on East 41st Street in Manhattan for $5 a month (the first three months' rent fronted by Eisner, who'd just been paid for a one-time commercial art job. for a product called Gre-Solvent),〔Kitchen, Denis. "Annotations to ''The Dreamer'', in Eisner, Will, ''The Dreamer'' (W.W. Norton & Company, New York, 2008), p. 49. ISBN 978-0-393-32808-0〕 Eisner & Iger began with the former as the sole writing and art staff and the latter handling sales and also lettering the comics. Through Eisner's use of pseudonyms, including "Willis Rensie" ("Eisner" spelled backward) and "Erwin" (his middle name), the company gave the impression of being larger than it was.
A fictionalized account of Eisner's time with the company is depicted in Eisner's largely autobiographical graphic novel, ''The Dreamer''.
