 | | This was a fairly common theme in comics stories, especially in the 1950s and 1960s, although a few comics (as you'll see) used this theme in the 70s and beyond, too. |
 | | For whatever reason, the hero of the book decides that in order to accomplish their current mission (be it to help out someone or capture a crook), they need to establish an all-new identity, complete with costume, which is usually never heard from again! |
 | | Surely, there's a logical explanation for this new identity, and courtesy of the Grand Comics Database (http://www.comics.org), we see that he adopts this new identity to help a sea captain famous for helping others. |
