Ed's Notes: OK, weird entry alert! The pic above suggest super strength... which the game doesn't give him. The game gives him an Int of 8... which most of what I've seen and read, especially from that era... doesn't suggest he has! (Aside from THE CAR anyway.) Now, admittedly, I have not read that much about this character, but he seems like the Star Spangled Kid's Sidekick, in spite of being both older and stronger. So how is SSK the "Leader" of this team-up (he has the Leadership Advantage) if Stripesy is SMARTER as well?  I don't get it. Also, they're partners, so where's the: 

Advantages: Connection: Star Spangled Kid (High)

...?

NOTE: Since making that original entry I've learned a bit more about his relationship with the Star Spangled Kid. Their schtick was basically that the KID was the leader, and the adult was his... well, not so much his partner or sidekick, but more like his BODYGUARD. Lol. Basically, he was protective of the Kid, and went along on his adventures to keep him safe.

First Appearance: Star Spangled Comics #1 (October, 1941)
