I think it's a reference to the fact that Spectre spent a lot of time going after street thugs over cosmic menaces, especially in the '70s.

I was joking, of course, but a high proportion of his stories involve him meting out justice on a very individual level.
In some ways, the early version of the Martian Manhunter could be thought of as a Science! based version of the Spectre - they both apply overwhelming and poorly defined levels of power to fighting mostly non-powered evildoers.
Their conflicts with cosmic level threats could be considered something of a sideline. Then again, Superman fights a whole lot of gangsters too.
The character in my avatar is Captain Atom.

While there were some powered super-villains and cosmic threats running around, most of the bad guys of the pre-Silver Age period seemed to be either gangsters or just guys in costumes with a few gimmicks.

So, time for a tidbit to wet the appetite.

He didn't so much fight crime as torture it to death.
And don't worry, everyone, Hawkeye is back, ready to shoot an arrow at something in case we run out of bullets!

I know this is a typo, but you should consider going with it instead. I really like how it sounds.

Just finished up statting up Dorothy, Tot, The Lion, and the Woodsman. Have Scarecrow and the munchkins left to do, and then get their backgrounds on paper... TOTO is NASTY...
