Wow -- there can't be many Golden Age stories about polyesters! Any good chemistry specifics in the story?

 

Thanks for posting.

Sorry, no chemistry, the nylon was already made and used for stockings instead of parachutes.

Welcome back!

Thanks for this thread. Thanks also for bringing Red Eagle to my attention. It is a classic American comic book, due for a quality reprinting.

 

Thompson's Robotman is as fun and energetic and enjoyable to read as Cole's Plastic Man.

 

I found these at various comic blogs (thanks, Pappy!).

 

Maybe D.C. can be convinced to issue a collection of Thompson's Robotman stories.
