Who remembers comic book character "Sarge Steel" with his steel fist and Luger?

There was a theater just up the street from me, I can remember the old 20 minute serials. Batman was everyone's favorite, he drove a 1949 Ford and Batman actually carried (& used) a revolver. The entrance to the Batcave was thru an old grandfather clock (you set the hands to 12:00 to open the secret door in the clock) and the villain had his hideout in the middle of the Tunnel of Love (thugs getting in the little boat and riding thru the tunnel to get to the hideout). ...

I got the two Batman serials on DVD some years back but haven't played them through yet. Got as far as the villain's car changing color in mid-chase and the Batmobile/Ford flying off a cliff...

Also in the late 50's or early 60's, on Saturday afternoon, there was a TV show called "The Cliff Hanger Club" that played old serials...Flash Gordon, Batman, whatever...And Andy Devine had some show with Froggie The Gremlin (a rubber frog) that kept playing tricks on him..."Wave your magic twanger, Froggie!"...Or something like that...
