Manic Monday--How Tor Won The War, Chapter 1!
It's time to check in again with...
Tor is really Jim Slade, "roving press photographer," and he's in London to cover the Blitz.
Yes, whenever Jim put on his moustache and cape, he became...
He decides to help out folks in a bomb shelter...
...but Tor has bad timing, as:
Fortunately, Tor was written and drawn by Fred Guardineer, who, after creating Zatara at DC, went on to create a whole bunch of formal dress-wearing, backwards talking magicians at other companies:
Now that's how you deal with nighttime bombing raids! And you have to love the woman so excited by cheese...
But Tor is kind of annoyed at the Germans lack of manners, so...
OK, this is kind of weird...
Well, Tor takes out an entire Luftwaffe squadron...but what does he do with the bomb?
The rabbit doesn't appear again, so I can't answer your question of whether or not that is a giant-sized rabbit or not.

ReplyDeleteThe cheese thing is a bit goofy, but Britain was under heavy food rationing during and after WWII, and that included cheese. I've seen british wartime comic strips where the characters reminisce that they haven't seen an *onion* in weeks! I don't know if Guardineer had rationing in mind, but getting excited about a pretty mundane foodstuff makes a kind of sense, here.
