Topic: Nukla


  
  Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Nukla
Nukla, for example, lasted four issues, and would be practically forgotten today, if not for the fact that comic book enthusiasts tend to remember superheroes better than they do the likes of Around the Block with Dunc & Loo and Linda Lark, Registered Nurse (each of which ran twice as long).
Nukla was Matthew Gibbs, a CIA spy who piloted a U-2 airplane just like the real-life Francis Gary Powers, who had been shot down over the Soviet Union in 1960.
Nukla #1 (December, 1965) is credited to writer Joe Gill (long-time mainstay of Charlton Comics) and artist Sal Trapani (Metamorpho, Fab Four).

 Nukla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nukla was a short-lived nuclear-powered superhero published by Dell Comics in the mid 1960s.
He was created by writer Joe Gill (who created Captain Atom) and artist Sal Trapani (tho he had help with others, such as Dick Giordano.
Nukla was really Matthew Gibbs, a CIA spy and pilot.

 Oddball Comics - Nukla
NUKLA was one of Dell’s line of somewhat insignificant (but decidedly Oddball) superhero comics, produced at a time when Marvel, DC were experiencing great success with comics starring costumed crimefighters and even ACG, Harvey and Archie were (temporarily) jumping on the superhero bandwagon.
In semi-material form, Nukla disarms Tiro’s men who are guarding Gibbs’ U-2 plane, then takes off in his jet for Washington D. Filling in Jim Clarke as he flies home, Nukla de-materializes his U-2 and travels at a speed unheard of for a traditional aircraft.
Recovering, Nukla reveals it was his plan for Tiro to escape: “If I fought him here, half the city would be destroyed!” A moment later, Nukla takes off in his U-2 and using his superpowers, soon catches up with Tiro, who’s at the controls of his own orbo plane.

 Nukla   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Powers/Abilities: Nukla can fire energy beams which create nuclear explosions when they hit their targets, but he is only able to do this in a dematerialised state.
Nukla can also use his powers to swiftly heal from injuries.
Comments: Nukla isn't far from the only person to gain superpowers from being caught in atomic explosions - Charlton's Captain Atom, the Hulk, and (in a laboratory version) Dr.Manhattan have all suffered similar fates.

NuKLa was a chapter of KLa's journey where we recruited new spirit and energy from new members.

 Writing.Com: Chapters Sixty-Two and Sixty-Three (#1088130)
Rianae and Zoë go out to the nukla, speak to the boys on the other side and they talk a little, then Rianae is dropping her gaze to a small whirl (should it be "whorl?") of water nearby.
Well, the nukla was the worst about that, but both of these chapters had a "not quite in the scene" quality to them.
I guess I felt that the risq was the last justifiable "party time" and that the jaunt to the nukla was misplaced in such a time of trial.

 Mercury Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The second story had art by Charles Nicholas and Sal Trapani.
In many ways, Mercury Man was similar to other nuclear-powered superheroes of the time, such as Captain Atom, Doctor Solar, and Nukla.
He would be more interested in stopping foreign powers (I.E., communists) than criminals.

 Oddball Comics: Nukla
Only published for a total of four issues, NUKLA, the over-hyped “greatest super hero on Earth” represents yet another of Dell’s half-hearted attempts to establish their own line of “long underwear” comics to compete with those of DC and Marvel.
In Chapter Three, “Nukla Meets The Evil Prince”, Gibbs -- “wearing a new light-weight pressure suit and helmet designed to permit greater freedom of action in his new role as Nukla” -- flies his U-2 plane to the Riviera, where Prince Luis de Mal resides in a sumptuous villa.
Yes, Matthew Gibbs, as Nukla, is up there now…patrolling the world from the edge of space…seeking evil wherever it exists…sometimes in a form man can see…but more often silent and invisible…moving amongst us, alert for any danger to the world he and Jim Clarke have sworn to preserve!

NEUTRO was what some would charitably call a one-shot put out by Dell Comics in January of 1967.
It stands with other wonderful maladjusted Dell greats such as BRAIN BOY and NUKLA (both of which lasted a good deal longer than poor Neutro!).
It is arguably the worst comic ever put out by a major publisher (no small feat!), and oh, it is beautiful in its way.

Singer-songwriter Warren A. Babylon (guitar) mashes together country slide licks and hardcore dance-hall in "Big Dreams-Small Reality." Singer-songwriter Ras Crispy (keys) has his finger on the Long Island pulse with "Hamptons Rasta," a track that has proven to be a catchy anthem to east end fun.
This band has a sense of humor and drama, mixing readings from the bible (via flberry) with songs like "Selassie Come Home" and "Gone Jah" and "King Nukla." The band features strong soloists including Ras Crispy (keys), Beaumont "Gitzie" Tamchin (guitar), Dread Feardem (guitar and sax) and CC (flute).
While all the soloists were crowd-pleasers, CC's flute solos combined dense electronic effects with percussive growls, grunts and wails, creating an other-worldly feeling that left the room full of dropped-jaws.

This left Dell bereft of most of its line, shaking the company badly.
They did make at least a partial recovery, and in 1966 briefly tried again with superheroes, using the famous monsters Dracula, Frankenstein and Werewolf as the basis for new characters, as well as their own creation, Nukla - none of them took.
In a market increasingly dominated by superheroes, the company found itself struggling, and in 1973, Dell, formerly the largest of all the comic publishers, ceased publication.

 Dell Comics
Dell Comics lingered for another 11 years with licensed television and motion picture adaptations (including Mission: Impossible, Ben Casey, Burke's Law, Doctor Kildare) and a few poorly received original titles.
Dell additionally attempted to do superhero titles, including Nukla, Fab 4, Brain Boy, and a critically-ridiculed trio of titles based on the Universal Pictures monsters Frankenstein, Dracula and Werewolf that recast the characters as superheroes.
Dell Comics finally ceased publication in 1973, with a few of its former titles moving to Gold Key.

After a disagreement with Lee, Ditko left the company in 1966.
Ditko subsequently began collaborations with Dell ('Nukla') and Tower ('Dynamo', 'Norman'), but his main employer was Charlton, where he revived two old superheroes, 'Blue Beetle' and 'Captain Atom', from 1966 to 1968.
He also created his own title, 'The Question', two more philosophical titles, inspired by Ayn Rand's Objectivism and the writings of Aristotle.
