Auro

Auro burst onto the pages of Fiction House's beloved Planet Comics in 1946, a Golden Age science fiction hero conjured by the remarkable creative pairing of Len Dodson and Murphy Anderson at a time when pulpy cosmic adventure was the most exciting thing on a spinner rack. Sharing those wild interplanetary pages with memorable characters like Mysta of the Moon, Dorna, and Bron II, Auro was part of Fiction House's irresistible stable of space-faring thrills that defined an era of wide-eyed wonder. What makes this character genuinely worth seeking out is that legacy stretching across an astonishing 65 years of publication history — from that 1946 debut all the way through 2011 — turning up in treasured retrospectives like Golden-Age Science Fiction Treasury and Men of Mystery Comics, proof that the Golden Age never really lets go of its best. For collectors chasing the roots of American science fiction comics, Auro is a name that rewards the hunt.
