Stories

Reprinted In: Chamber of Chills 15
Notes: Plot is duplicated in Journey into Mystery 80 (May 1962) --the comics being read and swapped are Mystic, Marvel Tales, Uncanny Tales. Also features a truly horrific scene to any comics collector--a rolled up copy of Journey Into Unknown Worlds in one character's back pocket. One panel has a newsstand for the discriminating 50s comic reader--you can see 16 different titles and they are all Atlas horror or war. - Chris Brown.

Variation on an earlier Maneely/Lee story: 8954 Suspense #11 Haunted! - Ger A.
