Strange Adventures was a long-running sci-fi anthology series that featured various heroic figures including, Adam Strange, the Atomic Knights, Captain Comet, Chris KL-99, Darwin Jones, Deadman, the Enchantress, Immortal Man, Space Cabby, and the Star Rovers, as well as stories involving the Space Museum.
From issue 217 onwards, Strange Adventures ceased publishing new content (with the exception of issue 222 and the occasional prose story) and was repurposed to reprint old stories from itself and from its sister title, Mystery in Space. Like Mystery in Space, Strange Adventures was scheduled for a relaunch in 1978, but the plans were cancelled due to the DC Implosion. A year later, the relaunch went forward as a new title, Time Warp.
