Here's a kool klassic from the 1950s...the lead story from a 1953 one-shot that combined all the great cliches of space opera (spaceships, ray guns, aliens, half-naked space babes) in one tight ten-page tale set only thirteen years from now...
These days, this story would be a six-issue mini-series with tie-ins to several other titles.
The rest of Fiction House's Man O' Mars one-shot from 1953 was made up of unrelated reprints from earlier issues of Planet Comics.
The interior artist is Maurice Gutwirth, but the writer is unknown.
The original cover was done by Maurice Whitman, one of the Golden Age's more prolific artists with credits at almost every company of the era!
When the book was reprinted by IW Comics in 1958 from the original printing plates, the covers weren't included, so publisher Israel Waldman commissioned Angelo Torres...
...who created a superb Frank Frazetta-style cover, doing his fellow Fleagle Gang member proud!
