Johnny Danger
Created by ?

Beats me. JOHNNY DANGER was evidently the star of a long lost and short-lived (one issue) comic book put out in the fifties by Toby Press. Remembered now, if at all, for its famous (or is it infamous?) opium den story.

According to the cover (kindly reprinted on p. 105 of The Illustrated History of Crime Comics), Johnny was Honest! Smart! Tough! He smoked cigarettes, kindas looked like John Garfield, and evidently his name "Spells DOOM to the Underworld!" Alas, all that didn't seem to help, and Johnny faded into oblivion. Somewhere, Johnny is no doubt being consoled by Debbie Shaw, his "meek, retiring secretary."
