Description

Picked up a beat up copy of this issue:

The Sentinels #5 (July, 1962):
"Enter -- EMULEX!"

In this issue, the Planet's Ultimate Super-Heroes encounter a new foe, the android Emulex, who can duplicate all their powers. How can they hope to stop him!?!? I'm gonna guess "teamwork" has something to do with it. And the part about being super-heroes.

As is often the case, a mad scientist developed a killer android/robot with the ability to absorb over time the powers of other beings. (The Sentinels #5)

Emulex needs to be in proximity to his victim to absorb their powers, so he is placed in a coffin like box at a scientific event in Sterling City which the Sentinels have been invited to attend. Also on hand is resident science whiz, Jill Trent, the Science Sleuth and her friend, Daisy.

While the Sentinels study him, he slowly absorbs their powers, leaving them all mysteriously weakened.

Eventually upon taking enough of their powers, he bursts free, attacking the team! The heroes, however, still retain some of their powers, making their teamwork the deciding factor in the battle, eventually defeating the giant machine-parasite, with help from Jill.

The mad scientist, who is unnamed in the story, escapes, only to return later (The Sentinels #11) and be revealed as Dr. Micro!

All for the exorbitant price of 12 cents!

Roll Call (clockwise from Emulex):
Emulex making with the smashing;
Magno - master of magnetism;
Man o' Metal - he's metallic AND on fire, which equals cool;
Nelvana - an Inuit demi-goddess;
TNT Todd - a superhero G-Man (who just gets cooler to me with each commission he's in); and
Hydroman - he can turn into and control water.

I love the "beat" copy version of this.
