“Goitrude”

From 1943, this lively issue of All-American Comics features a cover by Irwin Hasen that leans into pure Golden Age charm — the stout, bowler-hatted Doiby Dickles rides atop his trusty taxi "Goitrude" as the cab plows through fleeing crooks, with the Green Lantern leaping into action behind him. The bold caption, "The Saga of Doiby Dickles' Cab!", along with Doiby's enthusiastic cry of "Go get 'em, Goitrude!", promises a story that puts the beloved cabbie front and center for once. Bill Finger's script and Hasen's art make this a genuinely fun slice of wartime comics, celebrating the little guy — well, the little guy with one very determined automobile.
