Stories and art by George Evans and Clem Weisbecker. 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 a mystery ailment leaves the people of the world unable to walk. Western-movie hero Rod Cameron faces a gunslinger who wants to make his reputation for beating Rod in a gunfight, while another merely wishes fame for shooting Rod in the back. Evil Dr. Hypnox returns, wrecking and scavenging ships at sea, until he strikes one containing Captain Video and Ranger. 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; ironically, this issue was mentioned in the text of the anti-comics classic Seduction of the Innocent (p. 382) because of "morbid fantasies" (the first story) and the good ol' "injury-to-the-eye motif." Captain Video and the Time When Men Could Not Walk!; Rod Cameron: The Gun Duel!; Captain Video and the Hidden Island; Airfield Al…Relatively Speaking!; The Little Monsters; Captain Video and the Legion of Evil. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
