    Cover by Charles Biro. Stories and art by Charles Biro, Dick Wood, Bob Wood, Frank Volp, Carl Hubbell, Bob Montana, Lin Streeter, and Dick Briefer. This early superhero title was one of the comics that made publisher Lev Gleason a major player during the Golden Age. Sniffer and the Deadly Dozen join the Army, using their strange abilities in exchange for pardons at the end of World War II - perhaps moved by the real-life unit that also inspired the film "The Dirty Dozen." Apache superhero the Bronze Terror is framed by an impostor during the shooting of the Bronze Terror movie, in a story with art (and a particularly cool splash page) by Dick Briefer. Two stories with early art by Archie creator Bob Montana. Also featuring a Daredevil PSA for Savings Bonds and Stamps, a WWII fundraising drive. Curious tickle-bondage cover by Charles Biro, featuring an exceptionally hideous villain. Daredevil: The Phantom of Notre Dame; Thirteen and Jinx; Sniffer; Crimebuster and the Phantom Preacher; Houdonnit the Great; Real American #1; London; Pat Patriot; Whirlwind; Times Square; Claw. 68 pages, Full Color.
