Doc Savage Comics

Street & Smith’s Doc Savage Comics ran for 20 issues from 1940 to 1943, adapting the pulp hero’s globe-trotting scientific adventures into vivid four-color panels. The series was most frequently written by Ed Gruskin, Carl Formes, and Walter Gibson, with art by Jack Binder, Vernon Greene, and Bill Smith bringing Doc, his trusted aides Monk and Jim Wilson, and the heroic Ajax the Sun Man to life. This wartime title stands as a key early bridge between the prose pulps and the burgeoning comic book medium, showcasing a beloved super-scientist at the peak of his popularity.
