2022: The Rangers of Freedom were 'Biff' Barkley, 'Tex' Russell, and Peter Cabot, three young men who were recruited by the FBI because their physical and mental fortitude made them 'the best specimens of American youth.' They donned patriotically themed bulletproof costumes, but they had no secret identities. Together with Ranger Girl they fought villainous Nazis and Japanese forces led by the Super-Brain and the Black Dragon Society. Though they had no powers, the Rangers were good fighters.

Collects Rangers of Freedom #1-3 (October 1941-February 1942).
