Ellsworth Forrester was considered by his friends to be nothing more than a debonair socialite, but once he dons his mask he becomes the unrecognizable Sphinx.

He was a crime fighter who fought to put an end to the sinister forces of gangdom.

*Exciting Comics #2-14

*The Nedor comics [http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/cce/firstperiod.html were renewed] by Popular Library, which was eventually bought out by Fawcett Books. When Fawcett went out of business, Popular Library was sold to Warner Bros. A number of different publishers, however, are currently/have been using these characters without any lawsuits from Warner Bros., so any action over them is (probably) unlikely. They are still, however, "use at your own risk" characters.
