Publication history

Yellowjacket starred in his own title, "Yellowjacket Comics", which was published for 10 issues from 1944 to 1946. There was no artist or writer credited for the stories. These ten issues were published by "E. Levy/Frank Comunale", which later became Charlton. When the title was renamed "Jack in the Box", Yellowjacket appeared in the first issue, #11.
