One the better ones here. The artworks of very high standard, and the writing is entertaining. Sci Fi obviously didn't sell.

'Sci Fi obviously didn't sell' Not a happy conclusion Mr Happy! Not sure why you would come to that conclusion? In the early 60's my memory tells me that Comics issue distribution was between 1 and 3 hundred thousand. 1952 was a good year both for comics and SF. This site lists collectors item comics from 1952 and 2 of them are SF. Both Atlas [Marvel] and DC had a range of SF comics through the 50s. According to this site, 1952 was a high point for comics. [By December of 1950 there were a total of 2070 titles published. A fair number, but more than 700 less than were published in 1952. At the end of 1951, there were already 2295 published in total; jump ahead to 1953 and that number stands at 2551.] I can't verify that but Wow! I've always said the 50s was a great decade to have been alive in! Also thanks to you (and anybody else) who points me to work by Alex Toth. However, 'Outlaws of Space' while definitely Toth's layouts, is lacking something. I'm going to go out on a limb and say 'inked by George Tuska' Evidence. Faces. Page 2 - Panel 4 ;Page 5 panel 1; In Particular!

Toth was inked by Aldo Rubano. The GCD says this info is on the original art. Standard seems to have put credits on much of their art, for bookkeeping purposes, I suppose. This is one of Toth's weaker stories. He cuts corners everywhere. For example the climactic panel where the hero spots and overcomes the main villain. We don't see any faces, no expressions, just a vague medium shot. I bet the later Toth would have been embarrased by this job. For better stuff check out Standard's "The Unseen" and "Joe Yank." Edit: Also "Out of the Shadows" and "Adventures into Darkness."

Crash, thank you. Noted and I agree with your assessment.
