Stories and art by George Evans and Martin Thall. Early TV superhero Captain Video comes to comics, an electronics wizard from an era when technology was just starting to change the world. Cap and Ranger investigate after their pal Professor Bradley disappears, and the mysterious Dr. Hypnox shows up with a gun looking for him. Western-movie hero Rod Cameron gets a mite unfriendly when owlhoots steal his horse War Paint and try to pass him off as someone else's horse. Cap and Ranger take action after their "opticon scillometer" shows them a man being chased by a monster scorpion. Art by future EC legend George Evans. Plus photos of TV's Captain Video and Ranger, Al Hodge and Don Hastings, including a color photo on the back cover. And moral lessons from Captain Video. The Secret of Sun City; Dizzy Daisy; Rod Cameron: Bushwhacker Bait; Captain Cromwell of the Space Patrol; The Creatures of Doom; Doc Sorebones. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
