The Bionic Man & Bionic Woman: Sci-Fi Legends at White Dragon Comics

The Bionic Man and Bionic Woman are two of the most enduring icons of the 1970s. What began as a gripping tale of survival and high-tech reconstruction in prose and television eventually leaped onto the comic book page. Whether you are a fan of Steve Austin’s gritty origins or Jamie Sommers’ heroic resilience, White Dragon Comics offers a fantastic selection of their adventures in new, uncirculated condition.

The Reconstruction of Steve Austin

The legend of the Bionic Man began in 1972. Steve Austin, a NASA test pilot, was rebuilt with nuclear-powered limbs following a near-fatal aircraft accident. While his television portrayal was heroic, his early comic book appearances often depicted a more ruthless and morally complex character.

• Atomic Strength: His bionic legs allow him to run at speeds exceeding 60 MPH.
• Enhanced Vision: His bionic eye provides 20:1 zoom and infrared capabilities.
• Superhuman Power: His bionic right arm possesses the strength of a bulldozer.

The Rise of the Bionic Woman

The story took a heartfelt turn when Austin reunited with his high school sweetheart, Jamie Sommers. After a tragic parachuting accident left her with injuries mirroring Austin's own, she was rebuilt by the Office of Scientific Intelligence (OSI).

• Bionic Hearing: Jamie’s bionic ear can detect frequencies far beyond human range.
• Agility & Grace: While she possesses superhuman strength, Jamie's stories often focus on her intelligence and undercover skill.
• The Jamie Sommers Legacy: From her debut in The Six Million Dollar Man to her own long-running series, she remains a pioneer for female leads in sci-fi.
