FEARLESS FLINT: The Famous Flint Man!

Wow. There's really not much information on Fearless Flint on the internet. So I don't know much about him. He first appeared in FAMOUS FUNNIES #89 (December 1942). And he was drawn by Wonder Woman artist Harry G. Peter.

International Hero adds: While helping excavate a mountainside near Mount Rushmore, construction worker Jack Bradley was caught in an explosion and resultant avalanche, and covered in a mysterious dust. Afterwards he discovered he could turn into flint whenever he became angered.

Although here it seems he's also "powered up" by touching metal...

That's about it!!
Here's a story:

BLAZE BARTON and the Tentacles of Doom!

Here's an irresistible golden-age classic! Well, probably not a classic. But who can resist a story that's only 4-pages long where the hero is ensnared in tentacles on every page and by the end of the story loses his shirt!!!

Blaze Barton travels to the Dark Side of the Moon in HIT COMICS #12 (June 1941).

written by ?; art by Maurice Gutwirth.

It's cute (on page 4) how he gets so into playing with the tentacles that he completely loses track of the girl he's trying to rescue. Guess a guy's got to have his priorities!!

SAMSON and DAVID: Boys Will be Boys!

Golden-age homoerotica at it's finest:

FANTASTIC COMICS #10 (Sept 1940) The cover reads: "SAMSON gripped the gangster pilot with one mighty arm, And with the other..." Well, look what he has in his other hand. What do you think he did next...?	FANTASTIC COMICS #11 (Oct 1940) Samson wrecks the torture machine with a "mighty blow." Kinda looks like the guy he's rescuing has a mighty blow on his mind as well...
FANTASTIC COMICS #16 (March 1941) The cover reads: "The mighty SAMSON smashes the war-like dictators!" What has that got to do with the cover? I guess it wouldn't have done to say: "David admires the way SAMSON handles large, hard objects!"	SAMSON #6 (June 1941) Who says tentacle porn is only for wimmen?
