Strange Adventures #9 (1951)

This particular comic is a must-have for any serious collector. Strange Adventures #9 features the debut of Captain Comet, one of DC's first science fiction heroes. Created to revive readers' interest in superheroes, Captain Comet is a "mutant man of destiny" with extraordinary abilities such as telepathy and clairvoyance, born 100,000 years ahead of his time.

The origin story, written by John Broome and illustrated by Carmine Infantino, follows Adam Blake as he meets the scientist Emery Zackro and learns about his cosmic powers. With the help of the professor, Adam transforms into Captain Comet, and is equipped with a ship and weapons to fight against destructive aliens and other villains throughout his appearances in 38 issues of Strange Adventures.

But that's not all! Strange Adventures #9 also includes other thrilling stories such as "Push-Button Paradise" by Gardner Fox, where an alien salesman sells a food-making device that ultimately puts humanity in danger, and "The Mad World" by John Broome (under the name John Osgood), where a galactic patrol ship is stranded on a quarantined planet infested with nerve spores and hallucinations.
