The Whole Story - The Six Million Dollar Man Stories 1 and 2...

"Steve Austin, Astronaut, a man barely alive....gentlemen, we can rebuild him, we have the technology, we have the capability to make the worlds first bionic man, Steve Austin will be that man, better than he was before, better, stronger, faster....."

The words spoken on the titles of The Six Million Dollar Man, arguably the most successful series of the 70's (that wasn't a soap), about the exploits of Steve Austin, an astronaut, who is involved in a near fatal crash on return from a space shot, he was to be the first human to undergo bionic implantation, to both legs, his right arm and left eye...the cost $6,000,000.

Steve becomes an agent for the OSI - The Office of Scientific Intelligence, (for some reason the OSO (Office of Strategic Operations) in Look-in).  There he takes on missions that are sometimes baffling, sometimes taking on madmen with superior technology with delusions of grandeur, stopping people with plans to generally disrupt the balance of power in world.

Steve was played by Lee Majors, his boss Oscar Goldman was played by the recently deceased Richard Anderson and the man with all the magic at his disposal, Dr. Rudy Wells was played by Martin Balsam in the movies, Alan Oppenheimer and Martin E. Brooks later on.

Some of the people/creatures Steve took on including, Bigfoot, The Robot Maker and the $7,000,000 man were often larger than life, and this trend continued in Look-in, Zecatyl the werewolf, The Toymaker, and our own robot maker Gunter Ull made sure the strip was kept true to it's TV counterpart.

Drawn for the entire run by Martin Asbury, every page oozed excitement and was obviously loved by the readers as one of the longer lasting strips, hardly surprising as it was mega successful and a string of toys and merchandise followed in it's wake, as well as a spin off series The Bionic Woman.

Now enjoy the Look-in series in it's entirety, starting with these first two stories...with thanks to Dan...
