And the wonderful Lily Renée, probably the finest female artist at Fiction House. But we also find Nick Cardy here, who went on to become one of DC’s finest artists in the 60s and 70s. Their work is outstanding and it’s the reason this remains the best known continuing feature in Planet. Their best artists worked on it, including two men who would later make their names with EC Comics: Graham Ingels and George Evans. This was the top feature for years in the iconic Planet Comics. While they develop their resistance movement, Hunt and Lyssa wander the future earth, defending the remaining humans they find against the Voltamen. After Bruce was killed, his brother placed Bruce’s brain into the Voltaman’s body. Earth has been conquered, but Hunt fights on in this long-running, lead feature in the legendary Planet Comics.Īmong the people who join their resistance movement is Bruce, one of a set of triplets found by the Voltamen in suspended animation who is in possession of the body of Guth, the Prince of the Voltamen. Together they develop a resistance movement against the Voltamen.

He is discovered living on Earth by Lyssa, the Queen of Mars, when she leads an exploration party to Earth.

Hunt Bowman and the beautiful Lyssa live on a future Earth that had been conquered by the Voltamen, fierce reptilian creatures with green skin.
