Payson, Planet. At some undefined point in the future Planet Payson is a freelance troubleshooter (alternatively, a Secret Service agent). In his first appearance he is working for Professor Sandow, a scientist and astronomer, and puts an end to a war between cloud castles. Later he works for an interplanetary transport company busting up an ionite ore smuggling scheme, and fights against a man styling himself on 20th century dictators. Payson has the usual blaster-and-spaceship combination.
