    Here's #2. The pre-costume Solar covers really look like science-fiction paperback covers from that time.

    Eventually I collected the entire SA run. Here's #1.

    A lot of my SA purchasing and collecting was focused on DC and Marvel, but I picked up some Gold Keys along the way. They're fun books. The following scans are some examples from my collection. I think Doctor Solar #17 was the first Doctor Solar I read. My brother bought it off the stands.

    This cover appears to have been drawn as simple line art yet there is so much "painterly" work in the coloring that I think it is a classic example of a greytone. I think so too. It's hard to tell with the funny animal books because they used a lot of pastel colors, but I think the painterly work you mentioned sets these examples apart.

    No. He is a Batman type character. A "super-detective". Strong, fast, smart, athletic, wears a costume, fights crime. There was an article about the Blue Streak book in an issue of Comic Book Marketplace and I went out and found a copy. I miss CBM. It always made my wantlist even longer.
