In "The Formula to Fairyland! [Prologue]," a 1943 All-Flash tale by Gardner Fox and E. E. Hibbard, a bookstore owner—unaware he’s been rescued by the Flash—mistakenly credits the Three Dimwits with his salvation, rewarding them with a mysterious book on summoning Fairyland. On Halloween, the trio and the Flash, along with Joan, chant the incantation and vanish into the magical realm, setting off a surreal journey that begins with a single, fateful page. The cover by E. E. Hibbard captures the whimsical dread of the moment, a 10-cent comic in 1943 that blends science and sorcery with classic Golden Age flair.
