American Update: Atomic Sci-Fi – Strange Worlds From Avon
*Miscellaneous 1940-1959: Avon’s Strange Worlds is one of the most famous ‘spacebuckling’ series; while Avon was a comparatively minor comics publisher, the title presented work by top talents, including Wally Wood, Joe Kubert, Gardner Fox, Carmine Infantino, Joe Orlando, Everett Raymond Kinstler and Gene Fawcette, among a plethora of others. Together, they created fast-paced tales of space-themed derring-do with occasional sidesteps into fantasy such as ‘Crom the Barbarian’ (comics’ first attempt at a Conan-esque hero) and ‘Dara of the Vikings’. These copies of a classic pulpy adventure series are mid-grade, averaging GD.
