Don Winslow of the Navy (1943 Fawcett) 35

Stories and art by Tom McNamara and Victor Pazmino. During the 1940s, military hero Don Winslow was the star of a comic strip, a movie serial and a popular radio show in addition to this Fawcett comic. Don and Red crash-land on an island of cannibals, and actually wind up in a giant cauldron in one scene. As the cover advises, these issues feature "official war stories from Don Winslow's Log Book," as he, like other wartime heroes, had to explain the continued reliance on WWII stories after the war was over. While on leave, Don is persuaded to get into the ring with a boxer called the Masked Marvel. Don realizes that the Hook has helped the Renegade escape prison when a guard is found "hooked to death." Devil's Paradise!; Don Winslows Crossword Puzzle; Jetsam Joe; Eaglebeak Spruder; Night Attack; The Masked Marvel; Warriors of the Sea; Bell Bottom Bill; The Hook's Last Ride. 52 pages, Full Color.
