Fighting Yank

Golden Age Origin
Bruce Carter was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. Given a special mission by General Washington, Carter was killed by British spies and the information he was carrying fell into enemy hands. His spirit was confined to earth for his failure.

Bruce Carter III was the spitting image of his great-grandfather. He was visited by the ghost of Bruce Carter I, who showed him the location of a magical cloak and tri-corner hat that could give the wearer invulnerability and super strength. Only Carter III's girlfriend, Joan Farwell, knows of his dual identity.
