“Transformation”

In "Transformation," a 1953 Charlton classic, Lars Kranston and his lover Betty Stone flee Earth’s looming nuclear devastation for Mars—only to survive a crash that kills the others.

Dick Giordano’s bold artwork, both in the story and on the cover, captures the eerie beauty and emotional weight of this strange journey.
