This second issue of YKC continues the high quality of art and story that were in the first issue. And they're still all detective/crime stories, although a couple are humorous detectives instead of serious detectives. And this has to be the first use of the name "Dr. Doom"!
   By
There are earlier appearances of doctors with the surname Doom. Fox Features' SCIENCE COMICS #1 (Feb 1940) has a fiendish character named Dr. Doom ("his greatest achievement, a powerful chemical that will reduce humans to the size of molecules..."). A good Dr. Doom assists a hero named The Echo in Chesler's YANKEE COMICS #1 (Sep 1941). None of these, however, commanded the staying power of the arch enemy of the Fantastic Four.
