Big Bang Comics #19
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeBig Bang Comics #19 bills itself as a "Top Secret Origins Issue," and the cover — penciled and inked by Jeff Weigel — delivers that premise with a fun, Silver Age charm. Two costumed heroes, The Beacon and a green-masked heroine in a blue-and-white outfit, hold up dossier-style photos stamped "Top Secret," while a winged red-suited figure identified as The Hummingbird stands between them, the whole scene framed by playful speech bubbles promising readers "full security clearance" to learn the truth. It's a warm, retro-flavored package that sets up the Golden Age Beacon story inside with genuine style.

While exploring a cave, Scott Martin discovers the underground city of Shanzar. Imprisoned by Tyrnos, he and the deposed king Zarkon escape. Using superior will-power, Martin gains control of the Ko-Dan crystal from Tyrnos, overthrows him, and after restoring Zarkon and his daughter Areel to power, returns to the surface with the Ko-Dan, becoming "The Beacon" to rid the world of greed, ignorance and injustice.
