Debuting from Centaur Comics in Feature Comics #21, 1936, the Clock, eventually revealed to be society man and former district attorney Brian O’Brien, wore a three-piece suit, a fedora, and a black full-face mask. The first masked hero of comics dealt with crime using guile and gun and usually left a calling card that bore an image of a clock and the words “The Clock Has Struck.”

Ben Dilworth steps in to fill in the gaps about what MADE the Clock -plus a revelation: what happened to O’Brien’s look-alike and crime busting companion Pug?

Prepare for violence, harsh language and to ask the question: can there ever really be justice from the barrel of a gun?
