Captain Freedom

Don Wright was a publisher of the Daily Bulletin, a newspaper based in Central City (aka Manhattan). Tired of watching criminal getting away with murder, he put on a costume to help the downtrodden and oppressed. When World War II broke out, he focused on fighting "Jap-a-nazi" saboteurs, aided by the Young Defenders, four children who delivered broadsheets for the Bulletin.

In Speed Comics #23, Captain Freedom teamed up with Shock Gibson, Black Cat, War Nurse and Ted Parrish to repel the Japanese attempt to invade Los Angeles. He also teamed up with Black Cat and Shock Gibson on several other occasions.

Powers and Abilities
Captain Freedom originally displayed super-strength and limited flight, but those powers vanished shortly after his original appearance and he remained non-powered for the remainder of his appearances.
