Wexler and his writers, who used the collective pseudonym Tom Paine, cooperated on the strip from 1941 to 1942. In 1942, Wexler joined the Marine Corps. After the War, he began the comic strip 'Jon Jason', but this lasted only a year. Wexler then went into advertising art. He passed away in 2007, at age 89.
