    Cover by Ogden Whitney. Stories and art by Boody Rogers, Gardner Fox, Ogden Whitney, Paul Dean, Fred Schwab and Mart Bailey. Columbia Comics launches a solo book featuring aviator hero Skyman, one of the stars of Big Shot Comics. Orphaned by a plane crash and raised by his uncle to be superhuman, Allen Turner uses his experimental aircraft The Wing to fight crime as Skyman. Sparky Watts encounters The World's Strongest Puppy, in a typically wacky Boody Rogers tale. In a story that illustrates its times, Skyman battles saboteur Red Signet and his gang, who are trying to force isolationist America into joining World War II. Plus a Face story, and an ad for the never-produced Skyman daily comic strip. Introducing the Skyman; The Paralyzing Ray; The Skyman Encounters Kidnappers; Sparky Watts; Jibby Jones; Mortimer the Monk; Saboteurs; The Red Signet; The Face: The Orphan Asylum; War Games. 64 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10. Grade: CGC 7.0 explanation of grade Condition: Used (collectible)
