"Tyrone Ford, Air Adventurer" is all Scorchy Smith swipes (with at least one Terry and the Pirates for good measure).

I haven't read the whole comic yet, but just flicked through to see what was in there. I was interested in the strip 'Crime a Hundred Years from Now' that started on p. 20 and followed a criminologist of the future. Obviously what they predicted isn't quite right, but the cosmic rays and space walk did point to the future, and the forensic capabilities we have now would have seemed amazing to someone from 1938. Though I did smile when it said 'a Marvel Age arrives'. Well, we did have the Marvel Age of Comics!
