Navy comic books issue 49

Stories and art by Bill Woolfolk and others. During the 1940s, military hero Don Winslow was the star of a comic strip, a movie serial and a popular radio show in addition to this Fawcett comic. Don investigates ships that are vanishing right out of the ocean, and what they have to do with the escape of his old enemy, the Renegade. Don has an undersea adventure in a 18th-century submarine designed by one of his ancestors. Don and Red are scheduled to destroy the aging warship Courageous, which has seen three wars, but cantankerous Captain Battles is determined to go down with his ship. Plus a vintage Tootsie Roll ad, Captain Tootsie Saves the Sailplane, with art by Shazam co-creator CC Beck, and a hair-cream ad featuring detective Sam Spade.
