Whizzer Comics

Whizzer Comics, a five-issue series published by Cartoon Art in the late 1940s, is a brisk snapshot of postwar comic book energy. The title is most associated with its star, the speedster Whizzer, a hero who races through a mix of crime-fighting and adventure stories typical of the era. Though brief, the series offers a compact look at how publishers experimented with original superhero concepts as the Golden Age wound down.
