The tales of Adam Strange couldn’t be more aptly named — this is some bizarre science-fiction storytelling.
Originally told from 1958 to 1961 now restored to a bright, colourful glory, this volume contains the first appearances of Strange, a human who is regularly whisked away to the far-away planet of Rann for high-flying outer space adventures.
Featuring story titles such as: The Attack Of The Tentacle World and The Weapon That Swallowed Men, this is a real throwback title that has a ton of kitsch value, but might seem a little lame for modern sci-fi fans.
