| Pencils | Frank Battifarano (signed) |
| Inks | Frank Battifarano (signed) |
| First Line | Dale's father has been kidnaped [sic]... |
| Notes | The received wisdom is that Alex Lovy drew this strip in issues 11 and 13, but the signature Battifarano is clearly visible in the penultimate panel of the second page. The Who's Who has one Frank Battifarano as working for ACG and Street and Smith from 1940 onwards. All this strongly suggests that this is one of his earlier efforts. The art here is less stylish and more simplistic than other of Lovy's contemporary credited work, such as "Hope Hazard" in Detective Comics #3 (1937). This also calls into question Lovy's previous credit as author. |
