    Okay, is there any clue ANYWHERE as to how the Masked Marvel managed to stay on the wing of an airplane when it’s upside down? I must know how he did it!

    Well, he’s not called Masked Marvel for nothing!

    Me, I’m gonna guess magnetic boots.

    Given his preceding actions, MM’s last panel is somewhat ominous: “I’ll return and make sure the rest of his men don’t escape”. Bbbbrrrr.

    Superheroes started pussying out with that “no killing” thing and he retired.

    Hey, it was the golden age. Villains perished by the means of their own evil deeds. Came with the territory.
