The Liberator Prof. Drew |
Character(s): The Liberator Here is another great patriotic superhero from Exciting Comics no. 25, the source of last month's American Eagle story. The Liberator was in reality the mild-mannered Prof. Nelson Drew. He transformed into the powerful Liberator with the aid of a substance referred to as "Ancient Egyptian Lamesis." Whatever that was, it granted him incredible strength and speed, as well as a neat costume. The Liberator appeared in Exciting Comics nos. 15-30 & 34-35 and America's Best Comics nos. 1, 3-5 & 8. Information for this column was found in Howard Keltner's Index to Golden Age Comic Books. There is a new edition of this great book now available.
