In "The Invaders From Eboli," a legendary mechanical rice dragon—born of ancient tradition and crafted for harvest blessings—awakens with a will of its own when a tyrannical General forces its creation for war. When the builder’s daughter is taken hostage, the dragon’s purpose twists into something far darker, and it falls to the Heap to confront the living machine before it brings ruin. Penciled and inked by Ernest Schroeder, this 1952 adventure blends myth and machinery in a story that’s as inventive as it is suspenseful.
