History

........During the early months of 1940, radio announcer Dave Clark stumbled upon the schemes of a crooked builder, whose lax standards and substandard building materials endagered hundreds of lives when a dam broke and a building collapsed. Taking the law into his own hands, Clark put on a simple mask and called himself "Midnight" after the crime-fighter of a radio serial he had just completed working in.
........Fighting crime in his city, Midnight also came to the notice of another young man, who followed in his footsteps in battling injustice and started adventuring as Firebrand. A couple of years later, Midnight began to aid the wartime ALL-STAR SQUADRON as a member of one of its sub-groups, THE FREEDOM FIGHTERS.
........Aided by the crazy inventor "Doc Wacky" and his talking monkey, Gabby; Midnight battled evil and injustice through 1949. His present whereabouts are unknown, as is any relation to the masked crimefighter of recent years also called Midnight.

Powers and Abilities

........Midnight relied on his wits and his fists primarily. During his youth, Dave Clark roamed the country, picking up useful talents, such as boxing and some acrobatic skills. Later in his career, he used a "bubblegun" which could fire bubbles in an intense stream enough to knock down a man.
