In "Plastic Man's Rubber Armor!!!", a gruff soldier named Dewey takes a stand during a rare leave, vowing to teach a lesson to the next sailor he sees—only to find himself facing a surprisingly tough WAVE who matches his attitude with equal grit. Written, drawn, and inked by Bernard Dibble, this 1944 entry from Police Comics #33 captures a moment of unexpected tension and humor in wartime, with Al Bryant's cover art capturing the clash in bold, dynamic style.
