Fly By Night Boy

Wednesday Advertising Day.

On the scan sharing site www'comicbookplus.com I found a folder of the Captain Ben Dix ad series from the mid forties. Although itdoesn't seem to be the work a know artist, it is remarkeble for the quality of the art and the storytelling. I added a couple of color scans of my own, which seem to be from the month preceding the existing run.

And oops... it turns out that the black and white run came from my own earlier post! Well, at least I saw that someone left a message there: "The author of Capt. Ben Dix was Erwin M. Solms...my father." I'd love to hear more about that, kind poster.
