Captain Battle Comics

A single-issue wartime entry from Chesler/Dynamic, Captain Battle Comics (1942) introduced a costumed hero fighting the Axis powers. The issue was crafted by the prolific Otto Binder as writer and Jack Binder on art, a brother team then working on multiple patriotic titles. It stands as a brief but representative snapshot of the Golden Age’s rush to produce flag-waving, one-shot superhero comics.
