Atomic Revolution, The - 1957 Giveaway

no#. 6.5 to 7.0 F/VF

A very esoteric full sized scarce comic book "The Atomic Revolution" published by M. Philip Copp from 1957. The history of Atomic Energy is told with GREAT Atomic Bomb and Hydrogen Bomb explosion panels! Beautiful art by an uncredited artist - but I'm going to say it was by Golden-Age great Al McWilliams. Black & white art with red and green overtones - and many double page spreads. Higher grade condition, probably a file copy, but has wear along bottom spine and some upper spine bends, all from storage. White pages printed on higher quality paper. A very neat comic book!

Just a side note. I just finished reading a book on Robert J. Oppenheimer - who is considered the "father" of the atomic bomb. He was a MAJOR player involved with the then secret "Mahanttan Project" (called The Mahanttan District in this comic) that developed the Atomic Bomb in New Mexico. And he was considered an American Hero after WW II ended. But NOWHERE was he mentioned in this historical comic. Strange.
