Capt. Battle #2 [Fall'41]-68pg-c2c -Scans by Rolster

SPECIAL note of Don Rico's bizarre 'Dr Horror' in his one and only appearance at the end of the book.
Truly a unique story for the golden age.

Comment:	Pretty amazing book, all in all. There is enough plot in the four part Captain Battle story for a Justice Society adventure and probably more action too. The Harlan Holland feature is a fairly pedestrian detective feature, but the Dr. Horror one-and-only story is as ideocentric and freewheeling as anything of comparable length from an Underground Comix.
