“Last Warning--Evacuate Earth!”

"Last Warning—Evacuate Earth!" is a standout tale from Creepy Worlds #173, a 1977 Alan Class publication with a cover price of 0.15 GBP. Written by Carl Wessler and brought to life with dynamic art by Jack Kirby—pencils and inks by Christopher Rule—this story follows a mysterious old man in a wheelchair who hires a sea captain to sail him to a fabled site he claims holds the lost continent of Atlantis. When they arrive, the man reveals his true nature as a merman and departs with quiet gratitude, leaving the captain and reader alike with a lingering sense of wonder. The cover, also by Kirby and Rule, captures the eerie, otherworldly tone of the tale.
