A Ziff-Davis Thriller Special (PB)
Midcentury Comics #16-PB: Space Busters! Nightmare! Space Patrol! Golden Age Comic Classics!
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
It was the early 1950s, just a few years before the Comics Code would threaten to destroy comics altogether. In these final glory days, Ziff-Davis published three exciting comic series, high-quality adventure and fantastic stories: SPACE BUSTERS – SPACE PATROL- NIGHTMARE. Each series only lasted two issues before fading away, but this level of comic mastery could not remain buried forever. In this volume you'll find the stories from all six issues, the most authentic reprints you can find, and of course it comes from Gwandanaland and Midcentury ComicsTM!
SPACE BUSTERS:
These are the interplanetary adventures of Brett Crockett and the SPACEBUSTERS, the roughest, toughest, bravest soldiers to put on a space suit!
“Trained to physical perfection and outfitted with the best that science can produce, the SPACE BUSTER is indeed a One-Man Army. Only three applicants out of every thousand that apply are accepted for SPACE BUSTER training – and only 40% of these recruits finish the full two years training.”
NIGHTMARE: This is a series unequaled in talent – Kinstler, Colan, Toth, Baker, Krigstein, Tuska, and other greats of the comic world contributed to this masterwork series (1953-1954).
SPACE PATROL: These are the interplanetary adventures of Buzz Corry, Commander of the SPACE PATROL, and his cadet Happy, as they travel the spaceways, battling evil Empresses, space pirates, and monsters of other worlds – featuring some classic Krigstein art, it's a spaceflight you don't want to miss!
THE PUBLICATION OF THIS BOOK (ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS) IS DUE TO THE SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT OF DONALD O'MALLEY
