Titanes Planetarios #124
In "El arma que desintegraba a los seres," Adam Strange faces a terrifying new threat on Rann when alien invaders deploy vacuumizers capable of disintegrating entire armies into gas. With only nine days to devise a plan after a devastating defeat, Adam returns to Rann to find the planet’s people restored but their city, Ranagar, vanished. Guided by a clever insight into how the weapons target only one element at a time, he devises a strategy using layered metals to protect the Ranagarians and turn the tide. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated with dynamic precision by Carmine Infantino, with inks by Murphy Anderson, the cover by Infantino and Joe Giella captures the moment of high tension. A 1.00 MXP comic from 1961, this issue stands as a standout in the early adventures of Adam Strange.

When Adam Strange beams to Rann, Alanna tells him that aliens demand Rann's surrender. At dawn, Adam leads an army against the aliens, but they use their vacuumizers to turn the army into gas. When Adam materializes on Earth, he has nine days to form a plan. Returning to Rann, Adam finds Ranagar gone, but the Ranagarians restored. Realizing the vaccumizers only affect one element at a time, Adam has the Ranagarians cover themselves in several different metals so they can get close enough to the aliens to defeat them in hand-to-hand combat. The aliens surrender and leave without their weapons.
