Due to the Dreaded Deadline Doom (as Marvel editors used to say in the 1970s) on a paid assignment...
...we were unable to prep the story scheduled for today!
Luckily, we had already prepared a never-reprinted text feature from Harvey's Fighting American V3N1 (1966) about the Fighting American and SpeedBoy, which was scheduled for use later in this blogathon.
Note: the hero mentions they had been "on a secret government assignment"...which lasted a decade!
(The previous issue was in 1955!)
BTW, since this text feature conveniently-synopsized the character's origin, we're going to save the actual origin tale for last (as we did with The Avenger) and jump next week into the insane action with Russkies trying to steal Middle-Eastern oil in "Sneak of Araby".
Never has kicking Russkie asses been so much sheer fun!
