Weird, I'd never heard of any of these characters before, but today I come across this "Thunderfist" character twice.  I was looking up something completed unrelated to Canadian comics that had to do with a strip that briefly ran in Famous Funnies and came across the cover to an issue of a Canadian WW2 comic called Active Comics from Feb 1942 and it has a cameo shot of Thunderfist on the cover.  And now I see this thread that mentions the same character tonight!

Active Comics (about halfway down the page):

The Brain was also a Canadian Superhero..... I've not seen the book come out from IDW or anyone for that matter. Any ideas anyone?
