Owner's Description
In Issue #10, a scientist in Austria named Ferdinand Alt (who is disguised as a toymaker) has come up with Cavorite, a material that can cause items to defy gravity. When Alt is killed by foreign spies, the CIA once more goes to Jean Loring to get the help of Atom.
Atom travels to Austria where he tries to stop the spies from collecting a toy flying saucer, which has the only working supply of Cavorite device. Atom easily defeats the spies and recaptures the toy and flies it back to America. However when he arrives, he tells the CIA that Alt was a double agent, and that Cavorite, if exposed to too much electricity, would turn into a bomb. Thanking the Atom for his aid, the CIA takes the device into their possession to study it further.
Our 9.8 copy of this issue boasts white pages and is tied with two others for highest graded as of June 2020. We acquired it from the 7/26/2018 ComicConnect Auction.*
