MINOR SUPER-HERO 045: YANKEE EAGLE

(Military Comics 001-008, 1941-1942) 


Yankee Eagle is the code name of Jerry Noble, an uncostumed adventurer who can communicate with and command the loyalty of all animals. Aside from some nice art, Yankee Eagle is a fairly run of the mill character until you drill down into his origin: being rich. His mother left him a fortune and he used it to buy a private zoo and that 's how he learned to talk to all animals. Step aside Bruce Wayne! Move over, Tony Stark! There's a new chairman of the Rich Boy Super-Hero Club!
