Tom Strong


Tom Strong

Tom Strong was a bi-monthly comic book created by writer Alan Moore and artist Chris Sprouse published by America's Best Comics, an imprint of DC Comics' Wildstorm division.

Tom Strong, the title character, is a "science hero". He was raised in a high-gravity chamber and given an intensive education by his somewhat eccentric mad scientist father, on the fictional West Indian island of Attabar Teru. His upbringing, plus ingesting a root used by the natives of the island for health and long life, have made him nearly physically and mentally perfect. Though born at the dawn of the 20th century, he only appears to be in his forties as of the year 2000.

Tom Strong's Terrific Tales

Tom Strong's Terrific Tales was an anthology spin-off from the parent title. It usually featured three regular storylines in each issue:

One story would usually focus on Tom Strong, or on one of his supporting cast, and be either experimental or humorous in tone;

Another would be a Young Tom Strong tale (set during Strong's formative years on Attabar Teru, and illustrated by Alan Weiss);

A Jonni Future story (by Steve Moore and Art Adams) would often round out the issue.
