The eponymous protagonist of the Hurricane
comic strip The Juggernaut from Planet Z
was a giant robot. It was deliberately launched at Earth by unknown persons on
a moving planetary body (referred to by Earth scientists as Planet Z) as s
aid planet was passing through our solar system for undisclosed reasons.
The Juggernaut landed in Cumberland and was immediately attacked by
the military, provoking a devastating response, but one
Dr. Dan Morgan managed to calm it down.
The Juggernaut proved to be friendly and, although it subsequently
returned home,
Morgan was henceforth able to summon it from Planet Z
when it was needed to aid
Earth, apparently with the blessing of its mysterious masters.
The Juggernaut only appeared in Hurricane for about a year
( (4 July - 19 September 1964) but continued to appear regularly
in Hurricane Annuals until 1974.
Among the artists who drew the Juggernaut was Brian Lewis.
The Juggernaut is very similar to the title character of the novel
The Iron Man by Ted Hughes (later adapted into the film "The Iron Giant"),
which was was first published in 1968.
