Is this in the civil war story line where Tony lied and Aunt May died?
findthe first one without a double identity
yes
Johnny Thunder.
First JoJo?
The Fantastic Four never had secret identities from what I remember, it's why Doctor Doom was able to attack the Baxter Building!
Marvel wise, Namor certainly didn't hide his identity, and he was there from the start
to be fair namor was like the king of the oceans so like wtf are you gonna do, put on a diving suit and sink to the bottom of the ocean.
Zatara used his real name and face back in like 1938
Arguably not a superhero. He was a mystery-man at best.
I've never read the tie ins for Civil War. What was JJJ actual reaction after this? Did he talk to Peter?
>What was JJJ actual reaction after this? Did he talk to Peter?
Yes and he was shocked and angry.
I remember Robbie being fired for JJJ rage
He felt betrayed because he thought Peter was the last honest man he knew. Then he sued him
Can you point me the issue(s)? I would love to read that
Those events are in the Amazing Spider-Man tie-in issues to civil war (#532-538) but they’re by no means the main focus. JJJ’s reaction was shown on like one panel, and the suing thing was mentioned offhandedly by Peter. He really had more pressing matters at the time
Thanks, I will look into it
If only he knew how much Peter respects him
I think the front line issues had some more JJ stuff in it too
Heracles

OP covered that
MLJ's the Black Hood. Certified super-hero, he had his identity revealed by a villain in 1945 and became a private detective still known as Black Hood.
Actually, MLJ's Steel Sterling was super-powered, wore a costume with no mask and everyone knew his real name. That would be around 1941.
Ibis the invincible in WHIZ COMICS has a claim. He had great magical powers and went by his real name. That was in 1940.
Golden age super villains were public identity.
Like Lex Luthor.
