Space Adventures #54

Charlton's Space Adventures #54 brings the cosmos to your doorstep with a cover by Dick Giordano that splits the action into two tense vignettes: on the left, a menacing yellow alien robot looms over a captive human while declaring Earth's destruction, and on the right, a stylish dark-haired woman stands confidently on an alien landscape as a figure in a red spacesuit spots something ominous in the distance. Joe Gill and Bill Molno deliver the interior story "The Ultimate Weapon," promising the kind of imaginative sci-fi thrills that made 1963 a great year for space-faring comics. At just 12 cents, this issue also doubles as your entry into the Bonomo Turkish Taffy giveaway — interplanetary adventure and a shot at prizes all in one package.
