Years in Operation: 1940
Disclose Detail
Publisher: Flag Worth Carnahan
Country: Flag United States
Web Site:
Printings: 5
Disclose Notes: This company has often been erroneously tied to Holyoke and to Frank Z. Temerson's companies because Charles Quinlan was involved in this and other Carnahan ventures, and took the character name "Volton" (but not any other aspect of the character) with him to Helnit/Holyoke. Also, Bilbara's Cyclone Comics (featuring a character called Tornado Tom) appeared at the same time that one of Temerson's earlier companies produced Whirlwind Comics (featuring a character called Cyclone).

Bilbara published magazines c1938 to at least the late 1940s, mostly movie and romance magazines. It is believed by some to not be owned not by Worth Carnahan, but by William M. Cotton, owner of Ideal Publications. Cyclone Comics does have ads for Bilbara's movie magazines. The possibility of Bilbara being from Cotton needs conformation and would result in removing Bilbara from the Worth Carnahan published comics.
