Number 1469: Plastic Man...not who he appears to be

We’re beginning a theme week. I’m calling it Week of Quality, because the comics featuring during my four postings will all be from the Quality Comics line of the 1940s.

Our first story from Police Comics #19 (1943). We are reminded that Plastic Man is more than a secret identity for public enemy Eel O’Brian. While appearing as Plastic Man Eel has a whole other face. It’s only when he relaxes his facial muscles that it returns to Eel’s face. Most Plastic Man stories don’t involve anything about Plas’ secret identity, so unlike some superdoers who are constantly having to protect their secret identity, Plas apparently doesn't worry about it all that much.
