"A copycat feature called "The Hand" appeared in Harvey Comics' Speed Comics issues #12-13 (March–May 1941), with a huge disembodied hand tapping people on the shoulder and admonishing them for their wrongdoing.[3]" - wikipedia page for the hovering, crimefighting eye, Detective Eye
look i don't say this often but. i think everyone on this site should go read all seven pages of The Hand from Speedy Comics #12 (pages 26-32), if you have any curiosity at all about whether the artists can deliver on such a hypnotising concept. by the end you will truly understand why it was called a Golden Age.
