CAT-MAN #3 Facsimile Edition

Cat-Man takes on Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini in the cover story! Quinlan also draws incendiary hero Blaze Barton and Hurrican Harrigan. Also here is Rag-Man, Dr. Diamond, Lucky Landers, The Deacon, Lance Rand, Devil Dogs (in China), and a new hero, Pied Piper. The Hitler cover makes this a triple threat issue. Additional artists still include the talented Allen Ulmer and Ray Willner. Willner went on to work with Reed Crandall in the 1950s on Robin Hood and in Buster Brown Comics. Lost Art Publishers did a collection of his work a few years ago. Charles M. Quinlan’s Cat-Man has become one of the key titles of the Golden Age, known for its quirky hero and fun stories. We’re thrilled to offer facsimile editions of the first three issues. Typical of this era, Cat-Man is cover-featured with lots of backup strips-- 64 pages' worth. It's wartime now, and stories vary between fighting the Axis and crime on the home front. This is before Kitten joined Cat-Man. Blaze Barton takes on an arson ring; Dr. Diamond  features a giant robot; The Devil Dogs are still fighting in China; Patrolman Watson first appears here. Quinlan was one of the most competent artists of the Golden Age. This title, from offbeat publisher Temerson/Helnit/Continental, is a good one from start to finish. Cat-Man lasted 22 issues, a good solid run for the time. Bob Fuji ended up drawing Cat-Man in the highly-desirable final issues. Complete with all ads. 64 page classic.
