Background/History: From the Public Domain Superheroes Website: Police commissioner Calvin Dalton felt unsatisfied with his job, so he became a costumed vigilante to "ferret" out the criminals that eluded the police. His powers included the skills of a ferret and the ability to fly. He also had great and possibly superhuman strength, and either he or his costume was bulletproof.
Appearance: Ferret's one and only appearance was in Man of War Comics #2 in 1942. According to Public Domain Superheroes, Ferret's creator is unknown and his adventure was published by Centaur, and the character is in public domain.
