Superhero Sidekicks

[THEACE89]

Does anyone know of any golden age superheroes who had sidekicks like batman?

Just off the top of my head:

Green Arrow and Speedy (DC Comics)
Captain America and Bucky (Captain America Comics/All-Select/USA Comics/Timely)
Sandman and Sandy (Adventure Comics/DC)
Human Torch and Toro (Timely Comics)
Captain Wonder and Tim (Kid Komics-Timely)
The Defender and Rusty (USA Comics-Timely)
Shield and Dusty, the Boy Detective (MLJ)
Black Terror and Tim (Better/Nedor)
American Eagle and Eaglet (Better/Nedor)
The Wizard and Roy (MLJ)
The Flagman and Rusty (Holyoke)
The Catman and Kitten (Holyoke)
Blue Beetle and Sparky (Holyoke)
Lone Warrior and Dicky (Banner Comics and Captain Courageous Comics from Ace Comics)
The Eagle and Buddy (Fox Publications)
Green Mask and Domino (Fox Publications)
The Dart and Ace (Fox Publications)
Samson and David (Fox Publications)
The Lynx and Blackie the Mystery Boy (Mystery Men Comics-Fox Publications)
Black Lion and the Cub (Wonderworld Comics)
Nightmare and Sleepy (Clue Comics)
Black Cobra and Cobra Kid (Ajax Farrell)
Fighting American and Speedboy (1950's)

And those are just the teen sidekicks. For instance, the Star Spangled Kid was a teen superhero who had a sidekick, Stripesy, who was also his alter-ego's adult chauffeur. Then there were the numerous "comic" sidekicks like Doiby Dickles and Green Lantern.

Anyway, that's the tip of the iceberg.

I'm also wondering of the public domain ones which one had not only a male sidekick but, also a female counterpart? Like Batman had Robin and Batgirl.

I believe, in Catman Comics, both the Deacon & the Reconer(sp?) had sidekicks. So did Ace's Magno (Davy.) Ace's Lash Lightning had the adult Lightning Girl.

Fawcett's Bulletman & Bulletgirl were really partners.

Novelty's the Target had the Targeteers, two adult men.

Centaur Comics

Amazing Man had Tommy starting in Amazing Man Comics #23.

Starting with his second adventure, the Shark's dad, Father Neptune, started helping him as a kind of partner/sidekick.

Mighty Man has an odd case where his last few adventures had him helping out Super Ann Star, without her knowing he was around. If Centaur hadn't of gone under would she have become his sidekick? Who knows?

Dell Comics

The Owl had Owl Girl, an adult woman, join him in Crackajack Funnies #32

Martin the Marvel Man had his wife Vana.

Eastern Color

Hydroman had the sometimes sidekick of Rainbow Boy

Music Master had Downbeat

Gerona

Airmale and Stampy

 One also has to remember that inAll-Star Comics #5, Hawkman's girlfriend Shiera Sanders adopted the identity of Hawkgirl and became his female partner. And their crime-fighting partnership became official in Flash Comics #24. And around 1950, the Doll Man's girlfriend Martha Roberts gained the power to shrink and became his female partner Doll Girl.

I'm also wondering of the public domain ones which one had not only a male sidekick but, also a female counterpart? Like Batman had Robin and Batgirl.

Cat-Man Comics offered CatMan with Kitten as the female counterpart for one.

And when Catman finished in N.America, the character continued in Australia, where Kitten underwent a sex change, becoming Kit.
