Notes
- These stories are from the 1940s. In the context in that period, the Native Americans are referred as "Indians", which sounds "politically incorrect" today. Comic book stories from 1942 may depict some ethnic and racial prejudices that were once commonplace in American culture. Such depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. While not representing the DC Comics view of today's society, these stories are being indexed and summarized as they were originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.
- During this part of Green Lantern's career, any non-metal objects could hurt him, not only wood. A Native Indian manages to head-konk him him with a stone.
- Also appearing in this issue of All-American Comics was:
- Mutt & Jeff // Cicero's Cat (newspaper strip reprints) by Al Smith
Trivia
- Tsichah is a fictional tribe.
- The Buffalo spirit worshipped by Tsichah might be an allusion to one of two Lakota personified concepts:
1) Ta Tanka (Great Beast) - The male Buffalo spirit of plenty. 2) Tatankan Gnaskiyan (Crazy Buffalo) - The malevolent spirit who wreaks havoc on love affairs, causing feuds, murders, and suicides.
- When asked if he would help a Native American girl, Alan Scott answers: "I am a radio engineer, not Hiawatha." Hiawatha was a precolonial Indian leader and co-founder of the Iroquois Confederacy. He was a leader of the Onondaga people, the Mohawk people, or both. According to some accounts, he was born an Onondaga but adopted into the Mohawks.
