When I was a little kid in the 1970's, my Dad bought me quite a few comics... one of my favorites amongst them was the great and magnificent Dr. Solar! I was thinking of my Dad today, a man that I greatly miss in his absence. Here is a little silly random fandom for him.

Doctor Solar is an American fictional comic book character. Originally known as Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom, he first appeared in a comic book published by Gold Key Comics in the 1960s. He has since appeared in other incarnations in books published by Valiant Comics in the 1990s, and Dark Horse Comics in the 2000s.

Dang! I love your version of Doc Solar! My aunt gave me some Gold Keys when I was visiting her in NYC back in the 1960's! I remember sitting in a pool reading Doctor Solar, Magnus and Turok. Whoa. Still love those books today! The glowing effect around the good Doctor is crazy cool. Thanks for postng this!

nothing silly about that at all, man!

great update on this character. i like that you were able to retain his streamlined simplicity but make him look modern at the same time. top notch as always!
