About the series
In 1991, Marvel UK brought the environmental message of the popular animated series to comics with a six-issue run of Captain Planet and the Planeteers. Each issue saw the five Planeteers—from different corners of the globe—summon the elemental superhero Captain Planet to battle eco-villains and pollution. While a short-lived series, it stands as a key piece of the franchise's multimedia push, capturing the optimistic, educational tone of the show for a new generation of readers.
