Vulcan

Straight from the Golden Age comes Vulcan, debuting in the very first issue of Ace Magazines' Super-Mystery Comics back in 1940 — a launch issue pedigree that makes any collector's pulse quicken. Created by Joe Archibald, this early-forties figure emerged during comics' most adventurous frontier era, when publishers were throwing bold new characters at eager readers and seeing who would capture imaginations. Vulcan shares those pulpy, action-packed pages with the likes of Magno and Davey, keeping genuinely colorful Golden Age company. Rare and historically rooted, with only a handful of catalog appearances to their name, Vulcan is exactly the kind of hidden gem that reminds us just how vast and wonderful the Golden Age truly was.
