Buck Rogers

Buck Rogers was a comic series released in Winter 1940. It was one of the first sci-fi comics and got really good numbers on its sales. The stories followed the adventures of Buck Rogers, who spent his time defending earth from martian invasions, amongst other things. The comic managed to stay afloat and relevant for almost three years, but it was finally canceled in September 1943, after releasing six issues. Buck would appear later as a guest character in other comics and later series.
