The ubiquitous cover girl of the Golden Age of comics!
Oh good, Janet Lee escaped her fate from yesterday and lived to fight another day. And now she… wait, now her name is “Starr Flagg”? I don’t understand. It’s almost as if an undercover international woman of mystery might be using more than one fake name!
That is, fasten your seatbelts unless you’re a death-defying international undercover woman of mystery, in which case you can just go ahead and balance on a car’s bumper as it slams into a wall at full speed before leaping to safety at the last moment. Hopefully.
But don’t worry. She’s been through worse, I’m sure “Susan” will be fine. (If that’s her real name.)

…Or maybe it was that spear plus a punch to the jaw. Apparently our heroine’s jungle safari vacation is still going pretty much as expected. Thrilling Comics #53 (Pines)
A green rhinoceros in honor of St. Patrick’s Day? Even if so, it’s still the worst jungle safari vacation ever. She should totally demand a refund from the travel agency. I love how her facial expression while tied to the back of a rampaging rhino isn’t fear or confusion, but simply resigned annoyance.
Huh. Apparently, the “aliens” referenced on the cover are the foriegn gangster types sneaking across the border with parachutes and tommy guns, NOT the fiery giant flying eyeball shooting magical ray beams.
