Will we ever run out of fascist goons?
the Green Shirts:
The Green Shirts' claim to fame is their army of the resurrected dead, which they employ in their attempted takeover of the US. Or it would be, that is, if the test run of the resurrection device hadn't resulted in the death of its inventor and incidentally the creation of the super-mummy Mystico, who ultimately ends up destroying the Green Shirts in a very satisfyingly cyclical kind of way. (Startling Comics 001, 1940)
the Group/ the Superior Council:
The Group, a home-grown collection of fascist malcontents, acts as a front and recruiting arm for the Superior Council, the US arm of the espionage corps of the nation of Zatvia, a classic Nazi Germany stand-in. US secret agent Q-13 successfully infiltrates both groups in succession and foils them so hard that head honcho Miltor explodes. (Super Mystery Comics v1 002, 1940)
the Green Tie Society:
Despite the Green Tie Society's better-than-average name they're just another miserable little German-American Bund analog who manage to drag out an adventure with the new, human-faced White Streak for three interminable issues before being rounded up and tossed in the klink. They don't even have the good graces to wear green ties! (Target Comics v1 010, 1940)
the Guardists:
A fifth column attempting to capture Aruba's oil fields for the Nazis under the command of Dutch traitor Captain Kliefer, the Guardist movement is smashed by American ace the Lone Eagle. (Thrilling Comics 009, 1940)
