“The Invaders from the Future!”

In "The Invaders from the Future!", two travelers, Wes and Sandy, find themselves drawn into a mystery when an inn-keeper shares a chilling tale about a road that has swallowed every traveler who’s dared to cross it—none have returned, not even his own son. Written by Mort Weisinger and illustrated by Paul Norris, with inks by Chad Grothkopf and letters by the same, this 1942 Adventure Comics issue delivers a haunting blend of suspense and the unknown, all framed by Jack Burnley’s striking cover art.
