Blue Bolt #3 [27]

In Blue Bolt #3, a wartime facsimile letter from U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. urges young readers to support the war effort by buying Defense Stamps, blending patriotic messaging with the comic’s era-specific context. Written, drawn, and inked by Bob Davis, the issue captures the spirit of 1942 through its earnest, period-accurate appeal. The cover, by Ray Gill, completes the historical look with its distinctive wartime aesthetic.
