I vividly remember when I saw this Power Lords comic hanging off the racks at a bookstore when I was a kid. Return of the Jedi had already come out, and I was looking for my next sci-fi fix. I had never heard of Power Lords, but as I was looking at this comic I thought "Maybe this is it!". Anything involving a Dimension of Doom is usually up my alley.

The comic tells the story of Adam Power, a guy in an orange spacesuit that can turn into a blue-skinned humanoid with the flick of a power jewel. He is aided by Shaya (the Queen of Power), and Sydot the Supreme (the beer-bellied alien) as they are transported to the Dimension of Doom by Arkus, an evil red-winged insectoid. It is there that they must face monsters, monsters, and more monsters as Arkus and his crew begin to take over Earth. The Power Lords must find a way out of the Dimension of Doom before it's too late.

While time hasn't exactly been kind to this comic, I simply loved it as a kid. I had never heard of Power Lords at the time I saw this, and was surprised to see an ad for the Power Lords toyline on the back of the issue. I never saw these toys on the shelf though, and the comic never made it past the three issue mini-series, so I eventually forgot about it. As such, it appears the comic series is obscure enough to include here.
