Why is a character called "Headless Horseman" featured in a blog about heroines?
Yes, there is a logical explanation, so bear with us!
You knew it all along, didn't you?
This character, introduced in this never-reprinted tale from Centaur's Amazing Mystery Funnies #19 (1940) was one of several transvestite heroes/heroines who appeared that year!
There was also the first Cat-Man, who disguised himself as a little old cat lady as shown HERE!
Madam Fatal, who ran for 22 issues of Quality's Crack Comics used a similar gimmick, minus the felines!
Sadly, both The Headless Horseman and Cat-Man I made only 2 appearances each before disappearing into oblivion!
You'll see the Horseman's other (also never-reprinted) adventure here on Thursday!
