Adventure Comics # 80, November, 1942

Simon and Kirby are now getting cover hype, proving, if there was any need, their status as the first true superstars of comic books. 

No idea what happened to the Federal Men Club when that strip finally vanished but the Jnior JSA took up the slack over in ALL STAR COMICS, complete with secret codes.

The SANDMAN features finally dislodges STARMAN from the book's top spot.

 This issue's HOURMAN (finally in one single word) is a fun one featuring Rex Tyler out of uniform (although still saddled with  Thorndyke). Look for the ADVENTURE COMICS in-joke.
