Lars of Mars

Golden Age Origin
Lars of Mars was sent by the Martians after they discover that Earth has detonated an atomic bomb on our planet. He was sent with the purpose of stopping evil forces from taking over the Earth and to prevent the planet from becoming a universal threat.

When he arrived on Earth, Lars witnessed a woman being attacked by two robots, but after attacking them he discovered they were merly actors. Then Lars himself is mistaken for a wanna-be actor by June Conway who is a TV producer. She offers him a part in a new TV series called Man from Mars. Lars decides that this would be a great cover for his real mission, and accepts the job.
