Free Comic Book Day: Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom/Magnus, Robot Fighter

Dark Horse revived two classic Gold Key heroes for a Free Comic Book Day one-shot in 2010, pairing Jim Shooter's return to Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom and Magnus, Robot Fighter with Bill Reinhold's crisp artwork. This single issue served as a sampler for the publisher's then-new line of superhero titles, reintroducing these science-fiction icons to a modern audience. It matters as a bridge between eras, showcasing Shooter's continued stewardship of characters he helped define decades earlier.
