Space Squadron

In 1951, Bell Features launched Space Squadron, a short-lived but visually striking two-issue comic that rode the early wave of science fiction's golden age in pop culture. Anchored by the dynamic, machine-age artwork of George Tuska and Sol Brodsky, the series offered a straightforward, pulpy vision of interplanetary adventure—rocket ships, alien encounters, and heroic pilots—that captured the era's fascination with outer space. Though its run was brief, Space Squadron stands as a crisp artifact of early 1950s Canadian comics, showcasing the clean, energetic style that would later define its creators' long careers in the industry.
