The Very First Captain Atom

The very first Captain Atom premiered in the Golden Age, over a decade before the Charlton Comics character. Written by Jack Bellew and drawn by Arthur Mather, this was the original Australian Atom Man! Dr. Rador grew up on the island of Atol, and given bizarre atomic superpowers. He escapes with the bikini-clad Princess Lais to the mainland where he battles the evil forces of Wrecker and his partner Cobra. The secret origin of the nuclear superhero, and in color! You can download this now at Drive Thru Comics, and as part of the Super Heroes Collection, plus in paperback at Lulu, also in print and digital at Indy Planet.
