In "Devil's Island in Space!", Captain Comet faces his most outlandish mission yet when the Septarch of Lamia exile their worst criminals to Earth—only for the prisoners to steal a hydrogen bomb and plot a dangerous return. Written by John Broome and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Murphy Anderson, this 1953 Strange Adventures standout sees the hero intercept the rogue spacecraft and send the criminals back where they belong. The cover by Ruben Moreira captures the cosmic menace with a striking, otherworldly flair.
