Solar held his own title from October, 1962 to April, 1969. For a total of 27 issues. The series was revived in the early [[The Eighties|1980s]], continuing the original numbering. Four issues appeared between April, 1981 and March, 1982. He had guest appearances in the Doctor Spektor series. But was the extend of his use by the original publisher.
 
In the [[The Nineties|1990s]], Solar, followed by ''[[Magnus Robot Fighter (Comic Book)|Magnus, Robot Fighter]]'' and later ''[[Turok (Comic Bookcomics)|Turok]]'', was [[Canon Invasion|licensed]] by [[Valiant Comics]]. Under [[Jim Shooter]], Solar became the central superhero of the Valiant universe. Doctor Philip Seleski had read the Gold Key comic books as a child and his thoughts affected the reactor to copy the comic book character's origin. He wielded godlike power, re-created the universe during his origin, and was responsible for several [[Crisis Crossover|Crisis Crossovers]].
 
In 2010, Shooter restarted this title, as well as ''Turok'' and ''Magnus, Robot Fighter'', for [[Dark Horse Comics]], who licensed the characters directly from Gold Key using stories based on Gold Key elements (for instance, he's named Phil Solar again).
