Years 1941–1944 of DC Finest: Plastic Man
To all the world, Eel O'Brien is the toughest gangster afoot. But all that changed when some mysterious chemicals spilled on him during a botched heist and his gang left him for dead. After being rescued by monks and awakening in a monastery, Eel discovered that he now had the ability to stretch and bend his body into all manner of shapes and sizes. The monks' kindness also inspired him to atone for all his past misdeeds by using his newfound powers to do good instead of evil!
Now, Eel continues to masquerade as a petty crook to infiltrate the criminal underworld before taking them down as the malleable costumed avenger known as Plastic Man! Together with his kind-hearted (but accident-prone) sidekick, Woozy Winks, Plas will go to any lengths (literally!) to bring evildoers to justice and make the world a safer place.
Collects the original long-out-print Plastic Man stories by writer/artist Jack Cole published between August 1941 and July 1944 in the pages of POLICE COMICS #1-36 and PLASTIC MAN #1-2.
