| Iron Jaw is a real bad guy! The worst ever, killing your own son. So I wil say Iron Jaw is the number one Villain of the 40's. See for your shelf. |

| I don't know anything about Frank Volp, but I swear Alden McWilliams was involved in the Swoop Storm story. First the planes and machinery seem to have his unique touch. Also check out the faces and poses at the bottom of story page 2. The figures often don't look like A. McW, but maybe he assisted Volp? Inked? Did the hardware and secondary characters? |
