Lady Danger finds a needle in a haystack


Valerie Vaughn, aka Lady Danger, doesn't need a disguise, doesn't need super powers. She's smart, resourceful, and need I mention, a real cutie. She starred in a back-up feature in Sensation Comics in the late 1940s. This fine, fun story is written by editor Robert Kanigher and drawn by Carmine Infantino. It originally appeared in Sensation Comics #87 in 1949; this printing is from 1971, Lois Lane #117.

Thanks to Karswell of The Horrors Of It All for sharing the Lois Lane comic. The lead story is drawn by Werner Roth, who did the excellent Lorna the Jungle Girl story I showed a few days ago, and who wouldn't love Lois's hot lace-up boots on the cover?
