Hunt Bowman is of no relation.

In honor of science fiction month, check out some of these vintage sci-fi covers from Planet Comics.  Planet Comics was first published in 1940 and, after 73 issues, it ceased publication in 1953.  As can be seen in the covers featured above and below, Planet Comics told stories of manly men rescuing gorgeous women from bug-eyed aliens and fiendish space pirates.
