About the Art
This striking June 1951 issue of Captain Science showcases the artistry of Wally Wood and Joe Orlando, pioneers in Golden Age comic illustration. The cover, a vivid tableau of interstellar confrontation, features Captain Science wielding a futuristic weapon against alien adversaries, while a captive woman evokes the "Good Girl Art" style synonymous with the era.
The bold composition reflects post-war fascination with space exploration and pulp sci-fi narratives. Published by Youthful Magazines, the issue delves into themes of vampirism—posing “Truth or Fiction?”—a nod to mid-century cultural intrigue surrounding supernatural phenomena and scientific skepticism.
