    Cover by Charles Biro. Stories and art by Charles Biro, Norman Maurer, Bob Wood, Dan Barry and Carl Hubbell. This early superhero title was one of the comics that made publisher Lev Gleason a major player during the Golden Age. Daredevil tales on the new alter ego of Professor Bill Hart, and a crooked patent attorney puts the Little Wise Guys in danger when they join a test flight. Sniffer falls for an elaborate practical joke. The Little Wise Guys take on a bully. The backup historical strip "Famous Eccentrics" includes the Marquis de Sade, a strange choice even for a pre-Code 1940s comic book. Also featuring a vintage ad for an "Authentic Dick Tracy Tommy Gun and Detective Badge." Daredevil and the Little Wise Guys; Daredevil; Famous Eccentrics; Crimebuster: Case of the Careful Suicide; Sniffer. 52 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
