POWER AND THE GLORY OF -- CAPTAIN GLORY !!!


Created by Jack "King" Kirby, Topps Comics Captain Glory was a captain in Gazra's Science Team security forces fifteen millennia ago, who upon awakening would assume the name Captain Glory. He's also one of the three surviving Ninth Men of Gazra from the Great Catastrophe. Certainly not an uncommon theme for Jack Kirby.
