    Cover by Tom DeAngelo. Stories and art by Tom De Angelo, Jeff MacHamer, Ham Fisher, Gardner Fox, Ogden Whitney, Kermit Jadiker and Charles Zerner (credited as Paine), Elmer Wexler, Frank Tinsley, Alfred Andriola, J. P. McEvoy, John Striebel, Frank Beck and Mart Bailey. Big Shot featured reprints of McNaught Syndicate humor and adventure strips, alongside original characters like Skyman and The Face. Sparky Watts must escort officials to a secret military conference, which seems like no problem for a man with cosmic-ray superpowers. Vic Jordan is captured by Nazi agent Major Koenig, leading to a rescue by Adrienne and a battle to the death. Skyman's plane barely survives an encounter with a mechanic named "Gremlin," in an early use of the "gremlin" legend that originated just before WWII. Vic Jordan; Sparky Watts; Charlie Chan; Captain Yank; Joe Palooka; Bo; Dixie Dugan; The Face; Skyman; All in a Lifetime; Hollywood Husband; Return to Mindanao. 56 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
