Link: The Time Travelers

Science fiction comics usually run in anthologies of similar material. Forbidden Worlds, Mystery in Space, even Space Westerns. All their stories are clearly marked as fantastic in nature. This is why “The Time Travelers” (#1 October-November 1950 – #12 August-September 1952) in American Comic Group’s Operation Peril was so unusual. The rest of the strips that accompanied the time-slipping tales of Dr. Tom Redfield and his companion Peggy Foster were the sea adventures of Typhoon Tyler and the detective cases of red-headed Danny Danger. All three strips got cover space and none of the three could be said to overshadow the others.

“The Time Travelers” was written by Richard E Hughes, ACG editor and writing mainstay. Hughes was the creator of such characters as The Black Terror, The Fighting Yank, Super Mouse, and Herbie Popnecker in Forbidden Worlds. The artwork for “The Time Travelers” was provided by Ken Bald, best known for his later work on the Dr. Kildare comic strip that ran from 1962 to 1984.
