Planet Comics #53
In "Dwarflings from Oceania," Futura believes her mission is complete after ending "Project Survival," unaware that Mentor and the Cymradians still live and are preparing a final, decisive counterattack. The story unfolds with quiet tension as the fate of a hidden civilization hangs in the balance, drawn in bold, expressive lines by Walter Palais. The cover by Joe Doolin captures the mysterious, otherworldly tone of the tale, a 10-cent comic from 1948 that stands as a striking example of early sci-fi adventure.
