In "The Mystery of the Men with the Staring Eyes!", Hourman confronts a mad scientist wielding an ultra-sensory ray that conjures tiny, cloud-like beings from the 5th Dimension—creatures visible only through infra-red glasses. With Bernard Baily handling art, inks, and letters, the story unfolds in crisp, early-DC style, while Jack Burnley’s cover captures the eerie, otherworldly threat.

In "The Mystery of the Men with the Staring Eyes!" from Adventure Comics #64 (1941), the Astral Avenger confronts a chilling threat when a robed figure unleashes a sinister power known as the "Living Death," turning unsuspecting victims into lifeless, obedient drones.
