Adventures into Weird Worlds #21

This August 1953 Atlas anthology delivers exactly the dread its title promises — Sol Brodsky's cover depicts a terrified man recoiling inside a darkened cave as a shadowy, clawed creature lunges toward him, with human skulls scattered ominously across the rocky floor. The scene teases the lead story "What Happened in the Cave," along with additional tales including "The Plunderer" and "The Little Soldier." For fans of early-'50s horror anthology comics, this is a satisfying ten-cent package of creeping unease.
