(Flash Comics v1 002, 1940)
This strip (Rod Rian of the Sky Police, natch) might just be the greatest stand-alone future in comics, if only for Earth Commandant Elmus' uniform, which includes not only a belt covered in little stars but a helmet with a planet and star on top!
(better look at that great helmet)
Amazing uniforms aside, this strip has some top-notch sci-fi jargon: pilotar, telespaceship, terlurium ore, sensotar, earthons (that one's a currency), alien races called Mephistans, Unicors and Skeleton Men... this strip has it all!
