“The Weird Tales of the Wee Males!”

From 1948 comes this wonderfully strange entry in the Captain America Comics run, featuring a cover by Charles Nicholas that stops you cold: the Star-Spangled Avenger lies flat on the ground, completely overwhelmed by swarms of tiny, elf-like "Wee Males" swarming across his body and the surrounding terrain, while an enormous disembodied hand looms ominously from a cave mouth above. The cover copy poses the question perfectly — "Who could dream that such tiny folk really exist? And, learning that they do exist, how could Captain America suspect how deadly they could be?" — setting up a tale that leans gleefully into the fantastical side of late-1940s comics storytelling.
