Awesome / The Golden Age

• Manhunter spends the first couple of issues as an amnesiac, gripped by a fear he doesn't understand, and pursued by faceless goons who will kill anyone who gets in their way. Then one night he and Bob Daley are in a truck being chased by some of said goons. Manhunter, terrified but desperate, climbs onto the top of the truck. As they go onto a covered bridge, he jumps up, grabs a strut, and swings himself into the car through the windshield. The car goes off the bridge into a frozen river. Bob stops the truck and runs down to the riverbank. Manhunter bursts out of the water and Bob uses his belt to help him get onto dry land as the (second-person) narration reads:
  cold beyond cold — beyond feeling — yet your fear's begun to ebb — a little — replaced by anger. the anger warms you.
• In the final battle, Hawkman struggling up from under a pile of bodies to renew his attack.
  Dynaman's fists had hurt him. But he'd felt worse... endured more... in Egypt... Ancient Egypt. When he was a king.
• Most of the C-List Fodder heroes who help fight Dynaman/Hitler in the climax go down after getting in a couple of hits at best, but Human Bomb lasts long enough to trade twenty "explosive punches" with the villain. It's a shame that the fight is only described and not shown.
• Green Lantern knocks out some of Dynaman's teeth and keeping him busy for about a minute once they clash.
• Captain Comet only lands a few blows against Dynaman, but, despite his rookie status, he is the only hero to come back for a second round against the Fake Ultimate Hero after being knocked down and is Defiant to the End when he thinks his opponent is about to crush him beneath a bus.
• Liberty Belle saves Captain Comet and takes advantage of the distraction he's providing by impaling Dynaman with the broken cosmic staff while his back is turned.
• Lance Gallant fights Robotman without using his powers, lasts an impressively long time before being overpowered, and then kills Robotman, albeit at the cost of his own life after Tigress provides a distraction by shooting Lance's opponent through the eye.
