After his initial run in Space Adventures from March 1960 to October 1961, Captain Atom was MIA.  He resurfaced four years later in October 1965.  But it was not entirely new adventures we got.  Strange Suspense Stories (Charlton Comics) reprinted stories from Space Adventures.

Strange Suspense Stories #75 (June 1965)

“Introducing Captain Atom”

“Planet X”

“The 2nd Man in Space”

Strange Suspense Stories #76 (August 1965)

“The Wreck of X-44”

“The Little Wanderer”

“Test-Pilot’s Nightmare”

“A Victory for Venus”

Strange Suspense Stories #77 (October 1965)

“The Silver Lady from Venus”

“An Ageless Weapon”

“The Boy and the Stars”

“The Space Prowlers”

.

With the next issue of Strange Suspense Stories, the comic was retitled Captain Atom and featured all-new stories.  This “universe” was absorbed into DC Comics’ Multiverse when the Charlton characters were purchased by DC.  This universe became Earth-4.

Space Adventures #42 (October 1961)

“The Saucer Scare”

  • Writer: ??? (possibly Joe Gill)
  • Artist: Rocke Mastroserio

As with Captain Atom’s appearance in Peter Cannon… Thunderbolt #53, I could not find who the author of any of the stories was.  Most likely it was Joe Gill, but I couldn’t find them credited to him anywhere.  Help me out, internet.

Okay, so let’s start the nitpicking with the cover.  Cap’s cowl and boots are colored blue here but in the book itself they are orange.  Orange and yellow are Captain Atom’s colors except for his very first appearance when the costume was blue.  Ah, well. Mistakes happen.

This story opens with a flying saucer opening fire on an unmanned bomber over Pennsyvania.  “Whipboy,” who is tailing the bomber in his jet, radioes his base requesting orders.   At Cape Canaveral, Captain Adam requests permission to take the X-44 up into space to investigate.  He has a hunch the saucer opened fire without orders.

This is weird.  We all know Captain Adam is Captain Atom.  The general he’s speaking to has to know, right?  So why does Captain Atom need a spacecraft?

Defying reason, Captain Adam takes off in the X-44 and sweeps across the U.S. from coast to coast.  Adam discovers a cloud mass over Minnesota that looks weird.  There are several flying saucers hidden within, one of which breaks off from the others and chases the X-44.  Captain Adam declares, “They took the bait!” He was hoping to lure one of them out.

Adam jumps out of the plane (now on autopilot) and switches to Captain Atom just as the saucer powers up its primary weapon.  Cap takes some shots at the ship and chases it as it flees.  He blasts the saucer and quips, “Let’s see how you like juice, weirdo!”

The saucers all bombard Cap with death rays but to no avail.  Captain Atom blasts them and sends the others fleeing into space.  Back at the base, the General is marveling at how well the X-44 did against the aliens.  So I guess he doesn’t know about Adam’s secret powers.

This story was kind of dumb.  The art is pretty good, a B, but the story just isn’t that good or interesting.  I give it a D.

“The Man in Saturn’s Moon”

  • Writer: ???
  • Artist: Rocke Mastroserio

Statesman Andrei Rotov addresses the Dirty Commies on television, vowing to end the secret police and slavery in his country (Russia, I suppose).  In the States, Captain Adams (Make up your minds, Charlton.  Adam or Adams?) watches the address with a buddy who believes Rotov will end the Cold War.

The Dirty Commies who are actually in charge of Rotov’s country come up with a “brilliant” scheme to silence the politician.  Reminiscent of Mystery Science Theatre 3000, “his bosses didn’t like him so they shot him into space.”  Yup, rather than exiling Rotov to Siberia or just shooting him in the head (like they did with Andrei Chikatilo in Citizen X… wait a sec… ANDREI Chikatilo, the Butcher of ROSTOV… I think I just blew my mind), they spend (waste) thousands of rubles or whatever to put Rotov in orbit around Saturn.  Yeah, seems legit…

Captain Adam(s) has a hunch that the Dirty Commies have sent Rotov into orbit.  He seeks permission to investigate from the U.S. President (who now looks a little more like Kennedy but still clearly isn’t Kennedy).

Captain Atom flies to Saturn, then uses a compact transmitter to broadcast a message to Rotov.  He asks the statesman to hammer on the shell of his vehicle so Cap can find it among Saturn’s moons.  Yeah, Captain Atom can hear sounds in the silent vacuum of space (new power!).  He finds Rotov’s prison and enters it through the walls.  Cap asks if he returns Rotov to Earth, will those in power have him killed?  Rotov says, “I abhor violence!  I would not do them harm but would let the people decide.”  That really didn’t answer Cap’s question though.

Captain Atom guides Rotov’s satellite to Earth, taking out some missiles that the Dirty Commies launch at it.  Upon touching down, the Dirty Commies flee and Rotov seizes control.  Atom looks at the reader and says Rotov will form a new government with “freedom for this great people.”  Cap then flies back to the U.S., worried he’ll get in trouble for being AWOL.  But he was on a mission approved by the Commander-in-Chief.  Clearly not AWOL.

space.adv.42.01Once again, I am pleased with Rocke Mastroserio’s take on Captain Atom and give him an A for art.  Unfortunately, the story is stupid and totally unbelievable and I give it a D.  It would be an F but I kind of like the panel where Cap breaks the fourth wall and addresses the readers.  Also, the panel to the right sort of sheds some light on why Firestorm instantly hates Captain Atom.  There can only be ONE “Nuclear Man!”

“The Silver Lady from Venus”

  • Writer: ???
  • Artist: Steve Ditko

Once again drawn by Ditko in a story that sounds like one Joe Gill probably wrote, Captain ADAM (yes, he is Adams and Adam in the same book) begins the story by changing to Captain Atom and deflecting three nuclear missiles that had failed and launched by accident.  He destroys the missiles, but not before discovering that they failed because of faulty liquid oxygen expansion tubes designed by physicist James Matson.

Upon Cap’s landing, Gunner asks if he knows what caused the failure, then quickly excuses himself to see the “silver lady from Venus” on television.  Adam calls on Matson, who is transfixed by the silver lady on the TV as well.  She promises to some day take all her fans to Venus with her.  Adam marvels at her silver skin and metallic hair (get used to it Cap, cause that’s your future).

The silver lady discusses the failed launch, basically exonerating Matson from any blame.  Matson is overjoyed but Adam tries to get him to get in touch with reality.  Matson says he knew the tubes would fail but as he was working on them all he could see was the silver lady.  Adam realizes that Matson (as well as countless other men at Cape Canaveral) has been hypnotized.  When Adam says he’s going to call on her, Matson freaks out and shoots him.  Of course, Cap isn’t harmed and he locks Matson up “for his own good.”

Before he takes off after the silver lady, he tells Gunner that the woman really is from Venus.  Gunner thinks Cap has lost his mind.  Captain Atom follows a light beam from Venus and finds the silver lady communicating with her “Venutian master.”

Captain Atom picks her up and flies off.  She asks if he is taking her to Venus and Cap says no.  He deposits her in Russia, where she can “work her mischief… as much as she wants!”

After the prior meeting with the women from Venus in Space Adventures #37, I expected a better story.  Like so many of these early Captain Atom comics, the premise is good but the execution is not.  It reads like a Joe Gill story in that respect.  C for story but A for Ditko’s art.  I really love Steve Ditko.

This “universe” was absorbed into DC Comics’ Multiverse when the Charlton characters were purchased by DC.  This universe became Earth-4.

Crisis on Infinite Earths #7 (October 1985)

“Beyond the Silent Night”

  • Writers: Marv Wolfman, Robert Greenberger
  • Penciler: George Pérez
  • Inkers: Dick Giordano, Jerry Ordway
  • Colors: Tom Ziuko
  • Letterers: John Costanza

Crisis on Infinite Earths was a 12-part maxi-series and crossover event, produced by DC Comics in 1985 to simplify their 50-year-old continuity.  The series was written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated primarily by George Pérez. The series did away with the old “multiverse” in the DC Universe, and featured the deaths of some DC mainstays (like the Barry Allen Flash). It was ambitious, gigantic, and a huge whopping mess that I personally have only just started to fully wrap my head around.

The five Earths continue to merge, and the heroes on them fear for their friends and allies who have joined the Monitor’s aides in the war on the Anti-Monitor. The Spectre says not even his power would be effective in the anti-matter universe.  Alexander Luthor opens a portal between the Multiverse and the Ant-Matter Universe, through which Pariah guides Mon-El, the Supermen of Earth-1 and Earth-2, Lady Quark, Captain Atom, Jade, Green Lantern of Earth-2, Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, the Ray, John J’onzz, Wildfire, Firestorm, Dr. Light, and Supergirl.

The Anti-Monitor strikes Superman, and his cry of pain is heard by Supergirl, who races to help him. She passes Pariah, who is digging himself out of rubble. The Anti-Monitor is about to kill Superman with an energy blast when Supergirl crashes into the villain.  She wails on the Anti-Monitor, but the villain is too powerful. He knocks Supergirl back and announces that he will kill her and Superman. Supergirl tears the floor from underneath him, causing his blast to miss Superman.  Dr. Light, watching Supergirl continue to beat on the Anti-Monitor, realizes the selfishness of her own life compared to Supergirl’s, and says she has shown her the true path. Superman calls for his cousin.  The Anti-Monitor beats Supergirl down, who falls dead as Superman screams her name.

The five Earths are for now out of danger. The time distortion has stopped, and the Earths remain linked.  The worlds receive the news of Supergirl’s death and a memorial service is held in Chicago.  Later, Superman leaves his Fortress of Solitude with the body of Supergirl, wrapped in her indestructible cape, and sets her free in space, promising to remember and miss her forever.

Again, Captain Atom’s role in all this is small.  But that is to be expected with a story this size.  Because Marv Wolfman’s task was so sweeping and huge, I give an A for story and definitely an A for George Pérez, Dick Giordano, and Jerry Ordway’s art.

WHO’S WHO: The Definitive Podcast of the DC Universe

01 Friday Feb 2013

Posted by FKAjason in Miscellaneous

Aquaman, DC Comics, Firestorm, Podcasts, Rob Kelly, The Irredeemable Shag, who's who

Okay, so I’m straying from Captain Atom for this post.  This has been bouncing around in my head for a while now.  Bear with me, or skip this entry to get on with more Captain Atomy goodness.

Who’s Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe was a series put out by DC Comics to celebrate their 50th anniversary in 1985.  It ran 26 issues from March 1985 to April 1987.  There were a few update series released afterward, as well as spin-off titles Who’s Who in the Legion of Super-Heroes, Who’s Who in Star Trek, and Who’s Who in the Impact Universe.  Each issue listed major (and some minor) characters in the DC Universe, as well as locations and other neat info.  Usually, each character was assigned a single page which depicted them in an action pose and listed information about their history and powers.  Some less-popular DC characters had to share a page with another character.  The series was a personal favorite of mine and I am proud to say I own the complete run (the original 26 issues, all the updates, and the spin-offs).  If you click on the “Captain Atom in Who’s Who” link at the top of the page, you’ll see an example of some of the artwork.  Although I had a few issues of the title from its original run, I didn’t complete my collection until after I heard the first episode of WHO’S WHO: The Definitive Podcast of the DC Universe.

whos.who.08.01

The podcast first aired May 20, 2012 and I loved it instantly.  The hosts are The Irredeemable Shag of www.firestormfan.com, a blog devoted to Firestorm, the Nuclear Man (sometimes-friend, sometimes-enemy of Captain Atom) and Rob Kelly of www.aquamanshrine.com, a blog devoted to Aquaman.  Together, they also host The Fire and Water Podcast where they geek out about their favorite super-heroes on a semi-regular basis.  The Who’s Who podcast actually comes in on the Fire and Water RSS feed.

Each episode is devoted to a single issue of the series.  They describe the pages in such a way that you don’t have to have the issue in front of you – but it helps.  To describe it, the podcast doesn’t sound particularly compelling.  But these guys are true comic nerds (and I mean that as a huge compliment) who truly love great work by great artists (particularly José Luis García-López [Praise Be His Name]).

I was a turned on to The Fire and Water Podcast by my life-long pal and co-host on my own podcast, Roy “Charlemagne” Cleary.  Growing up in the 70s and 80s I knew who Aquaman was thanks to the various incarnations of the Super-Friends.  Firestorm I knew primarily because of Charlemagne.  I read the title briefly from 1987-1988 when John Ostrander was writing it.  I liked Firestorm but never really took to Aquaman.  I thought at first it was a strange mash-up for a podcast, but it works (of course, it helps that they both currently have their own ongoing titles).  It was Shag’s passion for the character that drove me to add the series to my pull list.  Since Dan Jurgens has taken over the book, it has become one of my favorites.   As I said, I never cared much for Aquaman, but respect his place in the DC Universe and he is my wife’s favorite super-hero so I won’t bash him.

When I heard that first episode of the Who’s Who podcast, I was impressed.  As I said in my iTunes review, the podcast itself is as ambitious as the Who’s Who series was.  I love the way Shag and Rob play off each other and their good-natured (I hope) ribbing of each other.  But most of all, their love of the art and the effort put forth by the creators of this series really shines through.  They have a lot of fans, and deservedly so.  And I can think of no better duo to dissect the Who’s Who series than these two.  I listen to a fair handful of podcasts, and this one is always first on my list.  When it shows up on my iTunes, it is like Christmas and my birthday all rolled into one.  And the theme song is catchy.

And there’s more to Rob Kelly than just Aquaman and Who’s Who.  He is a graduate of the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art and co-creator (along with Dan O’Conner) of Ace Kilroy, a comic strip about a 1940s era secret agent.  He won a 2012 Philadelphia Geek Award for Comic Book Writer of the Year and Ace Kilroy was nominated in 2012 for Eagle Award’s Favorite Web-based Comic.

Shag, on the other hand… I’m pretty sure he’s just got Firestorm on the brain 24/7.  I joke but it was a lot easier to find info on Rob online than Shag.  I’m not even sure what the dude’s last name is and that is probably by his own design.

I definitely recommend this podcast to anyone who love comics, loves DC comics, loves Firestorm and Aquaman, loves nerds, loves nerd fights, and loves to see two titans one-up each other with their knowledge of the art and industry.  Honestly, I wish I knew even 1% of what these guys know.

You can subscribe to WHO’S WHO: The Definitive Podcast of the DC Universe on iTunes or Stitcher.  Just look for The Fire and Water Podcast and you’re on the right path.  Also, you can find them on tumblr, Facebook, and Google Plus.  They also have their individual sites for Firestorm and Aquaman as well as a site for their original podcast.

Space Adventures #40 (June 1961)

01 Friday Feb 2013

Captain Atom, Silver Age Captain Atom, Steve Ditko

“The Crisis”

  • Artist: Steve Ditko

Although these stories were probably written by Joe Gill, he is not credited.  In the first story, Captain Atom has learned that a plane transporting a U.S. diplomat has been sabotaged to crash somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean.  Cap comes upon the plane just as it is about to crash, and rescues the plane off-panel.

Captain Adam meets the diplomat on the ground, who tells Cap about the mysterious engine trouble that they had and his confusion on how they landed safely with no operable engines, even though he knows about Captain Atom.

At the embassy, Cap does a little make-up work and assumes the identity of the diplomat (Mr. Haynes).  He believes that “the enemy” plans to kidnap Haynes.  Ten minutes later, he is proven right when a man posing as his chauffeur abducts the disguised Captain Adam.  The kidnappers promise to get him to the conference, but that he’ll be delivering words they provide.

At the conference, another diplomat (Malnov) accuses the U.S. of lying.  He says they want an atomic war.  When “Haynes” gets up to speak, he tells the other diplomats that he was kidnapped by Malnov’s men.  The men open fire on Cap, but to no avail.  Haynes excuses himself for a moment (so Cap can switch back with the real Haynes), and when the true diplomat returns, he begins to discuss disarmament.

Cap meets with Odeva, a double agent who tells him “they” have got a hundred atomic missiles ready to be fired (“they” must be the Russians).  Captain Atom finds the missiles, prepping for launch.  When they spot Captain Atom flying in, they launch the missiles, which Cap easily smashes.

Returning to the summit meeting, Adam whispers to Haynes what has transpired.  When Malnov gets up to speak and threaten to launch his missiles, Haynes gets up and says, “Baloney!”

space.adv.40.01Again, this could have been a better story if it were longer.  It is good for what it is, a B in my book.  Ditko’s art is A material again, even though in the second panel it looks like Captain Atom is wearing an adult diaper under his costume.

“The Boy and the Stars”

  • Artist: Steve Ditko

In this story we meet Master Sergeant Wilkie Scott, a man who was once an invaluable officer but has of late been making stupid mistakes.  One of these mistakes was to launch nuclear missiles over major U.S. cities.  Captain Atom is disarming one over Manhattan in the opening panel.  He rides the rocket out into space, saving millions of New Yorkers.

Back at the base, we learn that Scott has been so distracted because his son is dying of gamma ray poison.  Funny, gamma rays didn’t kill Bruce Banner.   Adam approaches Wilkie.  The two of them get in a jet and fly to Wilkie’s home on the West coast.  They visit Wilkie’s son in the hospital.

Adam asks the boy, Buddy, if he’d like to go into space.  He becomes Captain Atom, who Buddy instantly recognizes and calls by name.  So, like in Space Adventures #39, Captain Atom is again a well-known superhero and not just working in secret for the Air Force.

space.adv.40.02Captain Atom flies into space with Buddy, who the hospital staff think Captain Adam kidnapped.  Of course, Wilkie Scott doesn’t panic, so he must know Adam is Captain Atom.  Somehow, Buddy is not instantly killed when in the vacuum of space.  Also, Ditko again displays his on-again off-again inability to draw realistic-looking children.  The kid’s body is way too small and his mouth is way too big.  I love Steve Ditko’s superhero art but he was hit-or-miss with kids.

Captain Atom flies Buddy into “a lovely star that emanates a ray” that Cap has found useful in curing gamma ray poisoning.  The two walk around inside the star for a bit.  The Captain Atom takes Buddy on a sight-seeing tour of the Milky Way.  Then Cap returns Buddy to the hospital, where he reveals he is completely cured.

Later, we see a general chewing Captain Adam out for not dealing with finding out why the rockets misfired.  Adam replies that he found out the cause and it won’t happen again.

A cute story, but the science is weird.  It is revealed that Buddy absorbed the deadly gamma radiation through his telescope.  If that’s the case, why doesn’t this happen to people around the world all the time?  And why didn’t Buddy’s head pop in space?  A C story with C art (cause Buddy looks less like a little boy and more like a chimpanzee).

This “universe” was absorbed into DC Comics’ Multiverse when the Charlton characters were purchased by DC.  This universe became Earth-4.
