Dudes!

Long time no post, but as I was unboxing comics for a video on my YouTube channel, I happened across something I just had to come here and share! From story drawn by John Forte in Marvel's STRANGE TALES #40 (on-sale August 3, 1955), a character I can only guess to be the father of a certain spoiled brat Legion Reject! Can you guess who? Pretty similar costume at any rate, about eight years before his son applies for (i.e. demands) membership in the Legion!

Cool find! What other Legion parents might be lurking in the comics of the '50s?
