I was wondering, since Roy Thomas wrote the introduction...pure speculation on my part....perhaps these great tales from this era inspired him to create "The Invaders". I loved the title because artist Frank Robbins was going for Milton Caniff's highly stylized Steve Canyon look to his art. A lot of fans of my generation never could understand why the art looked the way it did. However my knowledge of old comic strips led me to believe this was the look the artist intended to recapture that era of comics.
