Doctor Solar

Doctor Solar (1963–present, Magazine Management) is a single-issue comic that introduces a scientist who, after a nuclear accident, gains the ability to manipulate energy and matter, becoming the titular hero. Published by Magazine Management, this debut issue is most associated with writer/artist Paul S. Newman and artist Bob Fujitani, who defined the character's classic look and powers. While brief, this issue established the foundational premise of a science-driven superhero, marking an early example of the atomic-age hero archetype in comics.
