Metal Hurlant
A metal (from Greek μέταλλον ''métallon'', "mine, quarry, metal") is a material that, when freshly prepared, polished, or fractured, shows a lustrous appearance, and conducts electricity and heat relatively well. Metals are typically ductile (can be drawn into wires) and malleable (they can be hammered into thin sheets). These properties are the result of the ''metallic bond'' between the atoms or molecules of the metal. A metal may be a chemical element such as iron; an alloy such as stainless steel; or a molecular compound such as polymeric sulfur nitride. In physics, a metal is generally regarded as any substance capable of conducting electricity at a temperature of absolute zero. Many elements and compounds that are not normally classified as metals become metallic under high pressures. For example, the nonmetal iodine gradually becomes a metal at a pressure of between 40 and 170 thousand times atmospheric pressure. Equally, some materials regarded as metals ca ...

Science Fiction Comics
Publication of comic strips and comic books focusing on science fiction became increasingly common during the early 1930s in newspapers published in the United States. They have since spread to many countries around the world. History The first science fiction comic was the gag cartoon ''Mr. Skygack, from Mars'' by A.D. Condo, which debuted in newspapers in 1907. The first non-humorous science fiction comic strip, ''Buck Rogers'', appeared in 1929, and was based on a story published that year in Amazing Stories. It was quickly followed by others in the genre, such as ''Flash Gordon'', ''Brick Bradford'', and the British strip ''Dan Dare''. This influence spread to comic books, in which science fiction themes became increasingly more popular; one title was ''Planet Comics''. With the introduction of ''Superman'', the superhero genre was born, which often included science fiction elements. EC Comics had success and popularity in publishing science fiction comics of increasing co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
