[2] Smash Comics had the distinction of being the company's first title with exclusively new material.

Originally, it starred a variety of superheroes and other crimefighters, including the Ray, Midnight, the Invisible Hood, Magno the Magnetic Man, the Jester, Black X, and the robot Bozo the Iron Man.

[3] About halfway through Smash's run, reprints of the four-page crimefighter feature "Lady Luck" — originally published in the Sunday-newspaper insert colloquially called "The Spirit Section" — also began appearing.

Eventually, the Smash Comics title changed names to Lady Luck for its final five issues, #86–90.

The title Smash Comics was used again in 1999 as a part of the DC Comics crossover story arc "Justice Society Returns".
