| Fox's Characters were about as genetic as you can get.
The Eagle here is visually almost identical to Blue Beetle (changed his costume in the next issue) and the Dart and the Flame could easily be mistaken for one another. |
|
| Well, except for cases like Stardust of course. Hehe. |
|
| So, the famous Yellow Kid of the 1890s grows up to become a super-villain named "Cruor"!? (see the Marga the Panther Woman story)
Also, The Eagle is a forerunner of more modern comic book superheroes with his constant quips and insults as he thrashes the bad guys. "Socko!" "Gangway, dopes!" |
|
| As well as Marga, I liked the Sorceress of Zoom (Great name) - though it looked like it was drawn by an untalented ten-year-old |
