Doom-Boy

A Silver Age curiosity with a name that crackles with menace, Doom-Boy burst onto the pages of IPC's Lion in September 1968, brought to life by none other than Jerry Siegel — the legendary co-creator of Superman — alongside artist Carlos Pino. With only a handful of recorded appearances, this is a rare, tantalizing figure from the twilight of British boys' comics, sharing those ink-and-paper adventures with the likes of Robot Archie, Gadgetman, and Gimmick-Kid. For collectors with a taste for the offbeat and the obscure, Doom-Boy is exactly the kind of Silver Age gem that makes digging through old Lion issues so rewarding.
