The only change in the cast of Little Boy Blue and the blue boys came in issue 72 when they acquired a female team-mate named Janey, who wore a bright red wig and called herself Little Miss Redhead. This didn't create much additional interest, as the series ended in issue 82. Her special weapon was a rope she could use as a lasso or a bola.

Charles Biro introduced popular supporting characters the Little Wise Guys, A "kid gang" similar to DC Comics' Newsboy Legion and many others. The group consisted of Jocko (glasses), Peewee (small), Scarecrow (scruffy and tall) and Meatball (short and fat) the latter of whom, with remarkable daring, was killed two issues later. Then Curly (bald) was added (Daredevil #16). By the late 1940s, with superheroes going out of fashion, the Little Wise Guys took centre stage, edging out Daredevil altogether with issue #70. They had no powers, but were handy with a boomerang.
