Dan the Dyna-Mite is a DC Comics superhero from the 1940s. He was the young sidekick to the character TNT, and was created by Mort Weisinger and Hal Sharp for DC Comics. TNT and Dyna-Mite made their debut in World's Finest Comics #5, and starred in Star-Spangled Comics #7-23. Dan's secret identity was Daniel Dunbar. He was later in the All-Star Squadron and the Young All Star. He is also a memeber of the superhero team Old Justice

Later appearances

In the Elseworlds miniseries The Golden Age by James Robinson and Paul Smith, TNT is killed in an apparent accident, and Daniel Dunbar becomes very depressed. He subjects himself to an experiment (dropping an atomic bomb on him) which transforms him into the powerful Dynaman; however, it is revealed late in the miniseries that the Ultra-Humanite removed Dunbar's brain and replaced it with that of Adolf Hitler. Members of the Justice Society and All-Star Squadron unite to defeat Dynaman in a colossal battle in Washington, DC.
