In "Time Machine," secret service agent Garrett is stationed in England during wartime, facing a bizarre threat when scientist Doc Schneider returns from Africa with a giant, tame Oran-a-tang. The creature, meant to be a marvel, becomes an unexpected tool in a criminal scheme that targets government secrets and feeds them to the Nazis. With art by Allen Ulmer and inks by Ray Willner, this 1943 adventure blends pulp intrigue with preposterous sci-fi flair, all wrapped in a cover by Ray Willner.
