Commando Yank

Commando Yank was a Fawcett patriotic action hero who fought on the World War II home front, operating as an American agent in the tradition of Golden Age wartime adventurers and sharing pages with heroes like Spy Smasher and Bulletman in Wow Comics.

Born in the thick of World War II's Golden Age, Commando Yank made his debut in Xmas Comics #2 (1942), stepping onto the scene alongside some of Fawcett's finest — sharing pages with the likes of Mr. Scarlet, Spy Smasher, and Bulletman. That's rarefied company, and it speaks to the caliber of patriotic, action-driven storytelling this character was part of from the very beginning. With appearances stretching across an impressive arc from 1942 all the way to 2017 — largely through Wow Comics and the dedicated archivists at Gwandanaland Comics — Commando Yank is a testament to the enduring appeal of Golden Age heroism, and with a key issue already to his name, he's well worth a spot on any serious collector's radar.
