American Update: Atomic Sci-Fi: Captain Rocket #1 (1951)
*Miscellaneous 1940-1959: Well, more of a Canadian Update really. Captain Rocket #1 (and only) was a Canadian venture into Atomic Sci-Fi. All the trademarks are here: square-jawed heroes, slinky space gals in bikinis, space ships with rivets, ray-guns, devious and ugly aliens and the odd monster. A decent example of this much-loved genre. A low grade copy which would grade higher if the front cover wasn’t sheared off — a clean break at least. Lovely pages and clean cover image.
