FASCIST GOON CLEARING HOUSE 001

There are various groups of fascist goons in comics and doing an individual entry for each bunch would be a slog, so it's time for another grouping of jerks!


The Yellowshirts here put in a better showing than most and almost manage to take over NYC before they get beaten down by the Patriot. (Human Torch v1 004, 1941)


Do the Brown Hoods sound kind of like how the Mafia was described in the 30s? Yes. Is that going to stop me from including them here? No. (More Fun Comics 036, 1938)


The Yellow Battalion are most notable for their fancy hats, as they end up getting the tar beat out of them in roughly three panels by Red, White and Blue... (All American 005, 1939)


... who also obliterate the slightly-more-organized Black Cross a couple of issues later (All American 008, 1939)
