Round 1, Match 6 results
The Veiled Avenger vs. "the heroine"
This was a tough one. These ladies are generally pretty equally-skilled. Similarly, it's hard to see how the defined Mordor-like setting would necessarily favor one or the other.
In the end, the outcome was determined by the specified issues. If we compare the gun-toting heroine from "The Dingus" to the mistress of the whip from Red Seal Comics #16, I think the latter comes out on top.
While Staton's "heroine" is capable of some pretty fancy shooting, she doesn't necessarily demonstrate that in The Dingus. The Veiled Avenger, however, proved herself more than competent to bring a whip to a gun-fight.
So once again, congrats to our Golden Age competitor: The Veiled Avenger proceeds to the second round!

Setting
This fight breaks out at a small junior high school located in a moderate-sized town in the mountains. Many of the students' parents are high-ranking officers and civil servants at a nearby military base. Consequently, the school has much higher-than average security measures.
