Whiz Comics #61

Whiz Comics #61 is an anthology featuring multiple superhero stories. The issue's cover teases that Captain Marvel will receive a first name, with a farmyard encounter between the hero and a man named Henry G. Marvel. Inside stories include "Adventures of R.C. and Quickie: Race with Death!" in which the characters pursue a runaway horse across the desert to intercept a jeep before it crashes; a tale involving a mad scientist who refuses to surrender an invention to either German or American forces, ultimately destroying his own creation and fleeing by train; and "Isis and Taia," in which characters pursue a magical Rod of Hermes that grants wishes, ultimately learning the artifact must be destroyed to prevent its misuse.
