After this Sylvester and Pat designed to become "Mystery Men" ( the term used to describe super heroes back then). Pat designed his costume with stripes and became Stripesy and Sylvester's had stars so he called himself Star Spangled Kid.
The two would later join the Seven Soldiers Of Victory and the All-Star Squadron. During a mission with the Seven Soldiers they were lost in time after battling the Nebula Man.
