That took a while to read... Nice One Mr Goldenage!
   By K1ngcat
In spite of assertions that the Captain Truth art is by John Giunta or Mac Raboy,. the shots over somebody's shoulder and the panels with the Captain's cape billowing out behind him are enough to convince me it's by Bob Fujitani. Take a look at the later issues of Hangman comics. The costume - half naked with pirate boots and a feather in his hat - is very bold for it's time though.
   By crashryan
I'm with you on Fuje, K1ngcat. No Raboy signs here at all. Faces, poses, anatomy all say Fujitani to me. As for the cover, I don't buy it as Raboy, "massive article" or not.
   By FraBig
The Captain Truth story is definitely Fujitani. As other people said, just take a look at later Hangman issues. Those faces and those CAPES! That's a Bob Fuji cape for sure, yessir. It cannot be someone else. Look at how the cape wrinkles in spirals!
