History: Commander Steel derived his abilities from the Elixir of Power that flowed in his veins. During the war he fought chiefly against Nazi's, and in the postwar period he roamed the world as an agent of International Police Service.

Comments: Commander Steel was typically the leading character in Grand Slam Comics which started in 1941. Ed Furness was the chief artist at Anglo-American and American writers such as Rod Reed and Otto Binder contributed some scripts.

Thanks to Mac Murdock for the images of Commander Steel, and for confirming that Grand Slam-Three Aces Comics #46 was not his only appearance. Thanks to Darci for various corrections and updates.
