The Secret 6, NOT to be confused with the similiarly named groups from DC Comics, was Harry Steeger's Popular Publication's attempt at doing their own version of the long-running and popular "Park Avenue Hunt Club" series: that of a group of vigilantes fighting back against crime.

Of course, Popular Publications has to do it differently, with both the characters and the villians they go up against. All written by G-8 author, Robert J. Hogan.

The Secret 6 are composed of:
* King, their leader. His father was detective, killed in the line of duty, his uncle the Chief of Police of a mid-western town, also killed in the line of duty. An aviator in WWI.
* The Bishop, a former man... More > of the cloth.
* The Key, an expert locksmith and safecracker
* The Professor, a former professor of criminology.
* The Doctor, a man of science, chemistry, and medicine. Gave the members of the group treatments to alter their fingertips.
* Shakespeare, a former wellknown actor and expert on makeup.
* Luga, a former Zulu chief. After King saved his life, became his self-appointed guide and aide.

Yes, the identities of all the members were unknown to both the readers and each other. This was due to the fact that all of these men were wanted by the police for crimes they didn't commit. Yeah, if I was on the run from cops, I wouldn't spend my time going after other bad guys...

The villains were all over the top, weird menace villians common to Popular Publications. < Less
