Sensation Comics DR PAT "Dr Pat--Flight Surgeon!"

She cures the sick, catches criminals...
...and defeats Communists!
Is there nothing Dr Pat can't do...while looking really kool doing it?
Though Wonder Woman was the cover-featured heroine of Sensation Comics...
...it's obvious Dr Pat is the real "Wonder Woman' of the book, as this never-reprinted story from #100 (1950) by writer Robert Kanigher, penciler Carmine Infantino, and inker Frank Giacoia proves!
She outsmarts a high-raking Communist officer and shoots down a fighter, while handling her flight surgeon duties!
BTW, the XB-49 "Flying Wing" was a real (albeit experimental) bomber tested during the late 1940s-early 1950s!
It's best-known to the public as the bomber seen in the 1953 movie War of the Worlds delivering an A-Bomb against the Martians!
(Actual flight footage of the ship, not a miniature, was used.)
Who says comics ain't educational?
