Gene Colan's KEN BRADY: ROCKET PILOT in "Boy Who Wasn't There"

Gene Colan 
(September 1, 1926 – June 23, 2011)
In tribute to the passing of a comics legend, we're going to run both appearances of the first ongoing character Gene Colan co-created (with Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel)
The second, and last, Ken Brady: Rocket Pilot tale from Lars of Mars #11 (1951), the second, and last, issue of the title.
While the series isn't anything particularly innovative, it's a classic example of 1950s-style sci-fi.
And Gene, who was doing a little of everything from horror to romance to Westerns, showed his versatility with this too-brief run.
