OUT OF THIS WORLD "Plague!"

Even when (believe it or not) created for benevolent purposes...

...a deliberately-contagious virus unleashed on the world is no laughing matter!

OK, how can we read other peoples' thoughts in our own dreams, as happens on pages 2 and 3?

Beyond that deliberately-deceptive plot element, this tale from Charlton's Out of This World #6 (1957) written by Charlton mainstay Joe Gill and illustrated by future Spider-Man and Dr Strange co-creator Steve Ditko hangs together fairly well!

Would someone deliberately-conceive and implement a biological weapon (whether for good or evil) today?

Some Reich-wingers believe the recent (and possibly retiurning) coronavirus epidemic was deliberately-engineered by Communist China!

What do you think, dear reader?

ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN "Higher Power!"

As we enter the Christmas season, we often ask "when science fails, can faith find a way?"

Perhaps this short. from ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #91 (1957) holds the answer!

Did writer/editor Richard E Hughes and artist Ogden Whitney base this tale on an oft-heard urban legend?

Oddly, when the story was reprinted in ACG's Unknown Worlds #18 (1962), it was retitled...

...and nobody can recall why!
