The Origin of CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT and his SECRET SQUADRON (1941)


The old Captain (probably an uncle to Cap'n Bob Napier) doesn't get much love these days, but from the late '30s to the mid-'50s he was pretty hot stuff. After starting his career on the radio, he moved into comic strips, big little books, a movie serial and a TV show. And of course he had a long run in comic books, beginning with this appearance in The Funnies #57, dated July 1941, as found on comicbookplus.
