Smash Comics #35
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe September 1942 issue of Smash Comics arrives with a bold promise right on the cover: "We Give You Midnight!" — and the masked, blue-suited Midnight delivers, walloping a startled thug across the face with what appears to be a "Super Suck Vacuum" attachment in a wonderfully pulpy scene. Cover artist Gill Fox rounds out the package with star-badge portraits of the book's roster — The Ray, Espionage, Rookie Rankin, and The Marksman — reminding readers just how much adventure is packed into every issue. With Reed Crandall handling interior art duties, this is a fine snapshot of Quality Comics firing on all cylinders in wartime 1942.

Happy is kidnapped by Mongols and taken to Russia, where his plane is shot down, his captor killed, who leaves a map with his plans behind. The Ray discovers a special Russian division called the Flame Troops who have been trained by The Khan, a descendant of Genghis and Kublai Khan, both of whom had great strength and mystical knowledge. The Khan waylays the Ray long enough to lay siege to Moscow, but, when the Ray recovers, he throws the Khan to his doom from the top of St. Basil's Cathedral.
