Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom #6
In "Atomic Energy, Number 3: The Parts of the Atom," Doctor Solar faces his most dangerous test yet, using his atomic powers to infiltrate an enemy stronghold in a daring rescue mission. Written by Paul S. Newman and illustrated by Frank Bolle, this 1963 Western Comics standout features dynamic art and a tense, high-stakes plot where Solar’s courage is pushed to the limit. The cover by George Wilson captures the moment’s intensity, making this a must-have for fans of classic sci-fi adventure.
In "The Impostor," Jo and Gail face a chilling threat when an android impersonates Gail to sabotage Atom Valley, forcing Solar to intervene as the Man of the Atom—only to be outmaneuvered and taken captive.
In "Android Against the Atom," Doctor Solar orchestrates a daring rescue, allowing himself to be captured to reach Gail, who’s being held by the villain Nuro. With the android as his opponent and Nuro watching from afar, Solar fights to free Gail—only to see the base and the android destroyed in the chaos. As they escape, the pair can’t be sure if Nuro was truly defeated or simply vanished.
