Fred Schwab (August 25, 1917 – May 13, 2000) was an American cartoonist whose humor panels and short features were published in a wide variety of comic books from at least 1938 to 1950, during a period fans and historians call the Golden Age of Comic Books.
His notable comic-book appearances include Timely Comics' Marvel Comics #1 (Oct.
1939), the first publication of the company that would become Marvel Comics; and some of the earliest publications of the companies that would become DC Comics.
