« Last post by mopee167 on May 16, 2024, 01:06:09 PM »I’ve been going thru the Pat Parker & the Girl Commandos in Speed Comics. It appears the stories in Speed Comics #13 (May 1941) to Speed Comics #25 (Feb 1943) are drawn by Barbara Hall.
Jill Elgin takes over with Speed Comics #26 (Apr 1943) and draws them to the end in Speed Comics #42 (Mar 1946).
Not sure about the story in Speed Comics #30 (Jan 1944).
Looking back at the Black Cat stories in Pocket Comics, it would appear likely that Barbara Hall did indeed draw the Black Cat stories in Pocket Comics #1 (Aug 1941), #2 (Sep 1941) & #3 (Nov 1941}, just as she told Trina Robbins in a long-ago interview.
Black Cat (Linda Turner) & War Nurse (Pat Parker), as drawn by Barbara Hall, look so much alike they could be the same girl with a different hair color.
