MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1942*. Stopped in 1949 after 29 issues, but has been revived several times since then.

The series contains wartime and adventure stories featuring a patriotic, American superhero by the name of Bruce Carter III. He obtained his strength and abilities from an ancestor who fought in the War of Independence, which also explains Carter's oldfashioned appearance.

* Initially, the title character was first published in Startling Comics from 1941.
