They say lightning doesn't strike twice, but when Fred Parrish is struck while traveling in the mountains, and then his plane is also struck as he tries to get to safety, it seems fate has something store for him. He is rescued by Dr. Bertoff, who uses the lightning still surging through Parrish and creates a man with super powers – BLUE BOLT. As the title character in Blue Bolt Comics, the Electrically-powered hero enjoyed over a decade in the comic spotlight.

Created by comic legend Joe Simon, and with early stories featuring some of the earliest work of the amazing team of Simon and Kirby, this is comics history brought back to life. This is the largest collection of BLUE BOLT stories in print ever!
