Adventures of the Fly #13
In "The Tiger Genie!", the Fly takes actress Kim Brand on a wild ride to prove that alien life is real—only to deliver her straight into the clutches of Professor Jahke’s lifelike Saturnian robot. When the mechanical beast develops an unexpected affection for Kim, things take a dramatic turn, but not in the way anyone expects. Written by Robert Bernstein and brought to life with bold art by John Rosenberger (pencils and inks) and lettering by John Duffy, this 1961 adventure features a cover by Rosenberger that captures the story’s zany, otherworldly charm.
