Young Allies #2 is the kind of Golden Age wartime comic that easily tops the Want Lists of genre collectors. Envisioned as a sidekick team-up book, Bucky and Toro appear here without their adult companions Captain America and The Human Torch. Giving their top-sellers' minor leaguers a title of their own was a stroke of inspiration that would continue to be a common trope in comics for decades to come. The Syd Shores cover is straight out of an Alex Schomburg fever dream as the Young Allies burst through a wall in a strange tank-like contraption into a den of Nazis who are preparing to brand a couple of their bound compatriots with Toro pitching a fireball at a machine-gunner. Pure Golden Age mayhem!
