Apparently, People Being Unwilling to Take in Refugees is Not a New Problem!
In fact, it dates back to the 1950s, when this tale was published...or an unspecified future, where this story is set!
This tale from Ajax/Farrell's Rocketman #1 (1952) ignores some basic science, like the fact that the homeless Venusians would have to pass Earth's orbit to get to Mars!
Perhaps that's because this story originally-appeared a dozen years earlier, when science in comic books was at a somewhat more primitive state!
And, please, no jokes about the lead character's name...
When this tale, part of an ongoing Spurt Hammond series (which ran in Planet Comics from #1 to #12), appeared in Fiction House's Planet Comics #8 (1940), the artist was identified through Fiction House records as Henry Kiefer.
But as for who modified the art at the Iger Studios for re-use in Rocketman, we have no idea!
In addition, the other three Rocketman stories were modified and re-used from earlier Iger Studio-provided art for other features...and other publishers!
