Wouldn't that be Doc Mid-Nite in a non-DC story? He was kinda like Daredevil, blinded and relied on his other senses.

Jeepers! LL returns and kicks ass on the trivia question!

Yes, Tom Benson is the "Silver Age Dr. Mid-Nite", created in 1965 by letterhack Rick Norwood for his fanzine Five, with permission of Julie Schwartz (who had no plans to use the character). And, yes, he was apparently much more like Daredevil than the classic Dr. Mid-Nite, from what I gather.

Thank Eryk. But that means I get the next question. Hmmm. Let's try a non-superhero one (no, not The Walking Dead).

When Archie was first introduced in Pep Comics what was his nickname?

Chic (or Chick) I believe. At least that is what he wanted Betty to call him, but she stuck with Archie.

And the narrator said "He hates Archie, so if you value life and limb, call him "Chick".

You got it Quis.

Ok, in the MAD parody of the Superman comic (Superduperman), who was the Unknown Monster?

nope. The Story was written in 1953, so Stan wasn't a threat to DC yet.

Wow... that was a complete shot in the dark. I've never even read that era of Mad, just read about it in articles and such.

Which Golden-Age DC hero appears on the cover of "The Big All-American Comic Book," but does not appear in a story contained within?

Nope, Terry Sloane got "Fair Play" with an internal story (the only Mr. Terrific story I've ever read, actually) but another character did not.
