About the series
In 1951, Superior Comics launched Rocket to the Moon, a one-shot science-fiction adventure that promised a thrilling journey beyond Earth's atmosphere. Illustrated by Joe Orlando, this single issue captured the post-war fascination with space travel, blending atomic-age optimism with the pulpy, speculative dread of the era. While brief, it stands as a curious artifact of early 1950s comic book sci-fi, showcasing Orlando's distinctive, moody art before he became a legendary figure at EC Comics.
