Notes
- Inside front cover is an advertisement for "Candy", featuring Joe Palooka, Lala & Vincent Palooza, Jane Arden, and Mickey Finn. It's not for any particular brand of candy.
- Archie O'Toole: Gil O. Teen's hench-villain, "Spider", used to be a female impersonator, but is trying to forget about that part of his life.
- The Clock claims to rarely carry a gun, but he says this in the process of duping a villain.
- At the end of the story, he does have a gun.
- Although he typically steals the loot from the crimes that he solves, and gives it to charities, this time The Clock returns all of it, because it was stolen from a charity.
- His real identity is not named in this story.
- After this issue, Hawks Of The Seas jumps to another publisher, and is next seen that same month, in Jumbo Comics #1, Sep 1938, published by Fiction House.
- Jane Arden and Lena Pry run across the tops (Jane), and bottoms (Lena), of each page.
