He strikes from
outer space...and nothing can stop him! Marvel Comics is proud to
present the iconic early adventures of the greatest of Spaceknights -
Rom! Centuries ago, Rom pledged his life to protect his planet, Galador,
from the evil Dire Wraiths. Now, Rom has tracked these vile creatures
across the cosmos to Earth, where they have infiltrated the highest
levels of power - including S.H.I.E.L.D. itself! Armed with his energy
analyzer, only Rom can see the Wraiths' true form - and with his
neutralizer, he can blast them into Limbo! But what will Earth make of
this armored invader? Will Rom's quest be aided or hindered by
encounters with the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Jack of Hearts, Nova, and
Power Man and Iron Fist? And when Galactus targets Galador, can Rom and
his fellow Spaceknights save their homeworld from destruction?
Collecting ROM (1979) #1-29 and POWER MAN AND IRON FIST (1978) #73.
