Federal Men

• First published 1936

The Federal Men is a law enforcement agency of the United States Department of Justice. (Texts, particularly early ones by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, are inconsistent if the Federal Men are synonymous with, a branch of or separate from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.) The Federal Men's focus is ostensibly a wide one, with agents handling cases involving kidnappings, terrorism, gangs, rackets and more, and likewise its agents seemingly are given a wide berth for independent action. The agency's officers have inspired and give support to a youth-oriented group called the Junior Federal Men Club.
