Secret Origins is the title of several comic book series published by DC Comics which featured the origin stories of the publisher's various characters.

Issue #13 features Nightwing & Johnny Thunder
Publication History:
Secret Origins was first published as a one-shot in 1961 and contained only reprinted material. The title became an ongoing reprint series in February-March 1973 which ran for seven issues and ended in October-November 1974. The title was used on various compilations of origin stories including Limited Collectors' Edition #C-39 (OctoberNovember 1975) and #C-45 (JuneJuly 1976) as well as DC Special Series #10 (1978) and #19 (Fall 1979).Its most well-known incarnation was a 50-issue series that ran from April 1986 to August 1990 plus three annuals and a special. Typically, an issue would clarify the post-Crisis origins of a number of characters, usually two as most of the issues were double-sized, i.e. 48 pages. Roy Thomas was the initial writer/editorial consultant on the series; later issues were overseen by Mark Waid. Three more specials followed in 1998-1999. In 2004, it returned to the all-reprint format with a "Weird" special featuring Doctor Fate, the Spectre, Animal Man, Enchantress, Metamorpho, Congorilla, El Diablo, and Bizarro World.Featured Video:
