The Guardian / The Crime Escradille / The Gas Bombs / The Birth of Robotman / The Dwarf / The Picture that Killed
A landmark issue that introduces three Joe Simon and Jack Kirby creations, the Guardian, the Newsboy Legion, and Robotman. Jim Harper first takes up the Guardian identity while protecting a group of city kids. An early Robotman tale and a team-up between the Needle and Dr. Weerd round out the debut-heavy lineup.
