Tom Strong Signed First Editions Reference

Tom Strong is Moore’s affectionate homage to pulp adventure heroes. Published by ABC/Wildstorm (1999–2006), the series follows Tom Strong — a science hero raised in a high-gravity chamber on the fictional island of Attabar Teru — through adventures that celebrate the traditions of Doc Savage, the Spirit, and classic pulp fiction.
