Feature Funnies was the title that started it all for Quality, known officially as "Comic Favorites." The book was filled with material from Busy Arnold's three partners, all comic strip syndicates, McNaught, Frank J. Markey, and the Register and Tribune. Some of McNaught's material moved to Quality from Eastern Color's Famous Funnies. Some of those strips dated back to 1935. The only original feature in the book was "Jim Swift," by Quality's early editor, Ed Cronin. George Brenner's "The Hawk" was Quality's first masked hero, but he appeared only once and was replaced in issue #3 by Brenner's pre-existing feature, "the Clock." Quality's first true superhero was the Doll Man (#27), created by Will Eisner (while he was still partnered with Jerry Iger). The logo changed with issue #19, changing the emphasis from the word "Funnies" to "Feature." Two months later, the title was also changed slightly to Feature Comics. Note: There are some references, mostly online, which link Feature Funnies and Quality Comics to the Harry "A" Chesler shop. Though Chesler might have supplied the odd strip for Quality, there is no solid evidence to suggest he was ever involved with Quality on a business level.

With Feature #32 (May 1940) a sea change occurred when Quality ended its partnership with the McNaught Syndicate (these can be identified by their consistent layouts and header format). Twelve features were dropped or shifted, most in favor of new heroes, super or not. At that time, some of the remaining syndicated strips (the Register's Side Show, Jane Arden, Ned Brant, Off the Record) were moved to Crack Comics. Only "Big Top" and "Lala Palooza," remained in Feature—and lasted until the title's very end.The inside back cover of #30 boasted a new slate of features in the coming months: the Voice, Zero, Samar, Poison Ivy, Rusy Ryan and Bruce Blackburn. Feature slowly became a non-superhero book, even as early as 1941. It returned to its roots, containing mostly humor features.
