Russkie-Smashers YOUNG MEN COMICS "Sub-Mariner (and Namora) in 'Pirates vs Pirates' "

 Even we make mistakes!

Last week's story wasn't Prince Namor's first Russkie-Smashing adventure!

This was!

When you look at the first couple of pages, it's easy to not realize this tale from Atlas' Young Men Comics #27 (1954), penciled and inked by Bill Everett (with a layout assist by Bob Powell), involves Russkies, so our inadvertent mistake is understandable.
