One Panel #372-374: Breaking the Rules

From The Ray: "The Beetle and the Tongs" by Will Eisner and Lou Fine (as E. Lectron), Smash Comics #23 (June 1941)

The Ray very often broke his panel borders, thanks to the dynamic art of Lou Fine, no matter what pen name he went under.

From Merlin: "Magic Vs. U-Boat" by Fred Guardineer, National Comics #12 (June 1941)

COPYCAT ALERT! Quality Comics' superhero magician Merlin stars saying his spells in backward-speak just like DC's Zatara does! That's one lawsuit the litigious comics company missed!

From Rusty Ryan: "Enter: The Boyville Brigadiers" by Paul Gustavson, Feature Comics #45 (June 1941)

Speaking of lawsuits, what do we think of the Boyville sports team uniforms? Captain America Comics was already out at this point!
