I’ve finally caught up on all the backlogged wounds! Only new wounds for the catalogue<\/a> going forward.<\/p>\n

the Dart<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The Dart has come all the way from Ancient Rome to the present day (1940) only to be shot in the left arm. (Weird Comics 006, 1940)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Doc Strange<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Though the text box says that Doc Strange is “riddled with bullets” in this exchange, the subsequent first aid suggests that his left arm bore the brunt of the damage. (Thrilling Comics 001, 1940)<\/p>\n

the Falcon<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The Falcon gets a classic head creasing. (Human Torch v1 002, 1940)<\/p>\n

Ferret<\/b>:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Despite the fact that these crooks manage to capture Ferret and force him to remove his bulletproof vest, they not only then choose to shoot him in the head but fail to actually shoot him in the head fatally<\/i> and instead do a classic skull crease. (Marvel Mystery Comics v1 008, 1940)<\/p>\n

the Flame<\/b>:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The Flame gets in on the classic skull crease game. (Wonderworld Comics 018, 1940)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

the Masked Rider<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Not to be left out, the Masked Raider sustains a head crease, classic. (Startling Comics 001, 1940)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

And again a few issues later. (Startling Comics 004, 1940)<\/p>\n

the Spirit<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The Spirit (who I’m sure will be a frequent visitor to the Catalogue of Wounds) is shot in the left shoulder by Dr Cobra<\/a>. (Spirit Section, June 9, 1940)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

A few months later: shot in the right shoulder. (The Spirit Section, September 22, 1940) <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n

And a few months after that, the right shoulder again, this time by the Black Queen<\/a>. (The Spirit Section, November 10, 1940)<\/p>\n

Thor, God of Thunder<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Thor’s alter identity of Grant Farrel is shot in the back, wounding him badly enough that it takes weeks for him to recover. (Weird Comics 003, 1940)<\/p>\n

Yarko the Great<\/b>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Even Yarko’s great magic cannot save him from occasionally being shot in the right arm. (Wonderworld Comics 004, 1940)<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
