This comic reads like a collection of Fiction House leftovers. There was a Prop Powers in Quality's "National Comics" but this doesn't seem to be the same guy. In fact his name has been re-lettered in the opening caption. I looked for other changes but found none because the hero is never called by name in the story! |

This cover is some kind of classic! Doesn't visually make a lick of sense but it sure grabs your attention.
'The Atomic Blondeshells' would be a great name for a band.

Just looking at these again.
Found some Atomic comics on another site, so came here to compare.
'Lucky Wings' is a feature in 'Voodoo comics.'
So likely the material is originally Ajax-Farrell.
Although I've only found one story, and that is different from those in Atomic Comics.
I like the character - well-drawn and well-written. |
