| Flip Falcon has become the closest thing to having Fletcher Hanks since he left the comic industry. I also liked the Golden Knight story since it's more the old Space Smith, ironically. |

Fawcett awaiting his next assignment after taking part in 25 bomber missions over Europe. It mentions that before he joined, he wrote Space Smith. Exact stories at this time are not known.
