Spy Smasher (1)

Golden Age Origin
Alan Armstrong was an expert pilot and wealthy playboy, but also the confidant of his fiancé Eve's father, Admiral Corby. The Admiral suspects spies have infiltrated America and needs help. So Armstrong puts on a costume and becomes the Spy Smasher. He has no powers. Instead he uses both his smarts and his Gyrosub, which combines "the functions of an airplane, auto gyro, speedboat, and submarine." When WWII ended, he changed his name to Crime Smasher and shifted his focus towards fighting crime. His fiance Eve sometimes helps him (she knows his secret identity.)
