Jackpot Comics #2

This 1941 summer issue of Jackpot Comics assembles four of MLJ's finest heroes — Steel Sterling, Black Hood, Mr. Justice, and Sergeant Boyle — in a striking group pose against a city skyline, with a sweeping green cape adding dramatic flair to the scene. Sam Cooper's cover art presents each character with confident energy, and the portrait medallions running down the left side let readers know exactly whose adventures are packed inside. Promising "All Brand New Stories" at a dime, this is Golden Age anthology comics at its most inviting.
