Golden Age Classics Prize Comics Black Owl Softee vol 1 back

Doug Danville was a wealthy New York playboy who decided to fight crime. He put on a costume and began his career as K the Unknown. He later changed his costume and became the Black Owl! Doug got involved with Terry Dane, a private investigator and true to comic-book tradition, she greatly admired the Black Owl and belittled Doug Danville for being useless. Nonetheless, he continued fighting criminals as the Black Owl, until he enlisted in the Army and handed down his costume to Walt Walters, the father of Yank and Doodle. With a whole host of enemies including Chief Skullface, the Fox, Frankenstein, Funnibone, the Green Mummy, the Tiger Lady, the Laughing Head and the Terrible Midge, among others, the Black Owl had plenty to keep him busy!
