Madame Strange And The Singular Universe

Another member of Great Comics' ridiculous roster of rescuers was Madame Strange. The caped bikini-clad crusader is a total mystery when it comes to her real name and origin, although she makes up for it with her bombastic adventures. Blessed with super-strength, Strange is an agent for the Allies in WWII who frequently distracted enemies with her beguiling looks by disguising herself as a stripper despite the fact that her identity as a spy was occasionally common knowledge. Her opening adventure is taking out the Japanese spymaster Bonza and his crew who plan to take over Hawaii after making a deal with a local crooked crime lord. She gets clobbered after confronting the deadly duo but uses her strength to escape captivity and foil a prison break. Still in a swimsuit for her second mission in Singapore where she's seen as a stripper whose knife-throwing skills help her take down more of the Japanese spy ring after her double agent named Sharkskin is assassinated, and she tosses the Axis goons into an exploding building. In her final mission, Strange changes her outfit for a more traditional looking superhero threads when she butts heads with the hook-handed yellow peril caricature of The Octopus and his army of mutant zombies where our heroine now has a secret identity as a reporter, as in the previous installments it was well known that she was an American agent. Whether Great Comics was trying to establish Madame Strange as a standard superhero with a newspaper day job as opposed to a super spy is unclear as her original look gave new meaning to the term "fan service"
