The final page to the Jester's first story:
The Jester's last Golden Age appearance was in Smash Comics #85 (October 1949).
The Jester did start popping up in DC Comics stories in Roy Thomas' All-Star Squadron in the 1980s.
from All-Star Squadron #31 (March 1984)
from All-Star Squadron #50 (May 1985)
from All-Star Squadron #60 (August 1986)
The Jester is a good name. DC should use it.
Jester was in Starman #46 (September 1998)
I have no idea why there was the difference in years for that one . . .
What’s everyone’s opinion that they later had Chick Lane become evil in his later years?

trivia:
Before Chuck Lane became Quality's The Jester, Quality's Madame Fatal fought against/with a criminal called The Jester.
Note the criminal Jester's costume. Look familiar?
