I don't remember the first books that I read, but the two that stick out are Little Vic, which I bought from a Scholastic sale in the 2nd grade, and around the same time I read a biography of Louis Braille from the school library, which started a love of biographies that I still have 35 years later.
For me, Doc Savage didn't come along until the movie was shown on TV. I now own all the books and a few of the pulps (and shhh, have the entire series on my Sony Reader).
Encyclopedia Brown was another favorite.
