Knights of the Galaxy was a short-lived science fiction series published by DC Comics. They first appear in Mystery in Space #1, (April-May 1951), and starred in the first eight issues of the series. They were created by Robert Kanigher and Carmine Infantino.
[edit] Publication history
The Knights were a peace-keeping force in the 30th Century (some sources say 25th), based on the Gala space station. The only named Knight was Lyle (no last name), Space Commando. The Knights' chief scientist was Ora (again, no last name), girl friend of Lyle and daughter of Arthro, their commander.
[edit] Other versions
A skewed version of the Knights appears in the 1990 mini-series Twilight, were they were cast as an opposing peace force to Tommy Tomorrow's Planeteers. Considering that the two teams existed in different centuries, this was decidedly out of character.
