Yank & Doodle is a pair of fictional superhero characters who first appeared in the Prize Publications title ''Prize Comics'' in 1941 and were revived by Dynamite Entertainment in the 2000s. ==Publication history== Created by an unknown writer and artist Paul Norris, Yank & Doodle first appeared in ''Prize Comics'' #13 (cover-dated Aug. 1941) as two superheroes who were too young to enlist in the army, but were still able to make a difference in the war effort. Their costumes were identical, except that Yank’s had a letter Y on the front, and Doodle’s a letter D. Their names were derived from the patriotic song ''Yankee Doodle''. In issue #24 (Oct. 1942), the duo took part in a crossover of all the ''Prize Comics'' heroes, including The Black Owl. In issue #34 (Sept. 1943), their father Walt became the new Black Owl, and the two titles were merged into one; when dad was sidelined in issue #64 (June, 1947), the boys once again had the spotlight to themselves. With issue #69 (April, 1948), ''Prize Comics'' became ''Prize Comics Western'', and everything that didn’t fit the new Western format — including The Black Owl and Yank & Doodle — was discarded. The three characters have since fallen into the public domain. In issue #6 of ''Project Superpowers'', The Black Owl and Yank & Doodle were included in a two-page layout of Golden Age character sketches; in the one-shot ''Project Superpowers: Chapter Two Prelude'', it was stated that the three of them would appear in the second volume of this comic title, and that Yank & Doodle would be part of a team of kid sidekicks and young superheroes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yank & Doodle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
