Adventurers

The Golden Age was littered with a large number of men and women who not only lacked super-human powers, but also refused to wear some silly, skin-tight Spandex ™ costume while engaged in the fine art of exploration, crime-fighting, and/or adventure.

Almost all are good with their fists, charming and distinctly rugged, and possess a can-do attitude that lets them achieve above and beyond the call of duty. This batch of direct-action adventurers include the following men and women:
