In "Those Who Change," Stan Lee and Steve Ditko deliver a sharp, surreal twist on cosmic vanity, where a smug Earthling’s boastful victory in an intergalactic contest leads to a fate far more permanent than he ever imagined. The story’s eerie, thought-provoking premise—centered on a man who wins a competition he doesn’t understand—comes to life through Ditko’s distinctive, unsettling art, rendered in bold lines and stark contrasts, with color by Stan Goldberg adding subtle unease to the alien landscapes. Cover by Steve Ditko captures the moment of triumph with chilling precision, making this 1962 10-cent marvel a standout in Marvel’s early anthology run.
