Earthman: Copyright 1954-John Giunta-1954


Some trivial if nicely drawn sci-fi nonsense form the great Gardner Fox, easily one of the top five comics writers of the forties, fifties and sixties! Fox was also quite prolific, writing novels in a number of genres (including romances!) while churning out thought-provoking comics, mainly for DC.

Yeeeeah, this reads like a first draft of a much better story. I guess when one is as prolific as this writer, many stories get rushed. I did like how optimistic the story was about the timeline of the space program in the 1960s.
