Our Flag Comics #3

From December 1941 comes this wartime Ace Magazines production, with cover art by Bruce Currie that crackles with patriotic energy. A stars-and-stripes-clad superhero streaks diagonally across the cover in a trail of red, white, and blue light, delivering a blazing punch to an enemy soldier atop a tank while warplanes and artillery thunder in the smoky background. It's a vivid snapshot of the home-front spirit that defined superhero comics at the height of America's entry into World War II.
