Planet Comics #53
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Dwarflings from Oceania," Futura believes her mission is complete after ending "Project Survival," unaware that Mentor and the Cymradians still live and are preparing a final, decisive counterattack. The story unfolds with quiet tension as the fate of a hidden civilization hangs in the balance, drawn in bold, expressive lines by Walter Palais. The cover by Joe Doolin captures the mysterious, otherworldly tone of the tale, a 10-cent comic from 1948 that stands as a striking example of early sci-fi adventure.
When invaders from Volta crash-land on Earth with a sinister plan—including a tank of mysterious dwarflings from Oceania—Hunt Bowman and Lyssa find themselves pitted against ruthless aliens and the monsters they've engineered to overrun the planet. With help from an unexpected ally, a Venusian captive, the two must race to stop the creatures before they grow beyond control and humanity's last defenders fall. Thornecliffe Herrick's tale of extraterrestrial conquest and desperate resistance delivers ten pages of fast-paced action and ingenious last-stand tactics.
When Mysta’s quiet vacation is cut short by a frantic distress call from Dr. Svord, she’s drawn into a dangerous mystery involving a stolen electro-ion device and a cloak that renders its wearer invisible—just as the very villains who attacked Svord begin hunting her next.
