In "The Return of Dr. Maritain!", Earth braces for the long-awaited return of its first mission to Alpha Centauri—only to be stunned when two identical starships arrive, each carrying a crew that looks and acts indistinguishable from the other. With no way to tell which crew is genuine, paranoia spreads as the real Dr. Maritain’s return becomes a test of trust and identity. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Frank Giacoia, with a striking cover by Ogden Whitney, this 1984 1/- comic delivers a tense, mind-bending mystery from the early days of science fiction adventure.
