Big Boss #27
In "Costumes de la créature," Tommy Tomorrow ventures into Prof. Jaxon's dimension cabinet, a device that opens a portal to the 4th dimension—though not quite the test he expected. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Jim Mooney, this 1976 adventure sees Tommy caught in a temporal twist where events unfold a day later, forcing him to step into the role of his counterpart in another world. The cover by Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff captures the eerie, otherworldly tension of the journey.
