Talk:Nathan Hale

I'm wondering if someone here could help me figure out this character, or more to the point, these characters. Nathan Hale Battle was Captain Battle's first published costumed sidekick, and usually went by the name "Hale Battle", right? Was he ever called "Captain Battle Junior" before Project Superpowers? The character who was originally published as "Captain Battle Junior" was presumably the biological son of Capt. Battle, and in the two issues of his own comic, appears to be an Army Air Corps officer and somewhat standard "aviator hero" with no special costume or weapons (even if he did meet a Nazi who at least shares the fashion sense of his dad's foe, Baron Doom)--if he ever served as a costumed hero either replacing or partnering his father, what issues did that occur in? Later in Cap's run, a character identical to Hale is present, but is named "Kane". The only Kane story I've seen so far was a reprint of a story that had originally featured Hale--was Kane really a separate character, or was Hale renamed in some of the later reprints for some reason?

Thanks for any information you can supply. --Comics North 21:00, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
