"In the Tornado's Wake!" sees Egyptologists Pete Murray and Rod Emmons stumble upon a mysterious magic wand during their excavation, only to find themselves trapped in a growing crisis. With the wand's power now their only way out, they must reverse its effects to restore what was lost—erasing both the wand and their memories of it in the process. Written by Richard Hughes and brought to life with atmospheric art by Tom Hickey, the story unfolds with quiet dread and a haunting sense of impermanence, all under the eerie cover by Ogden Whitney.

In the dusty ruins of an ancient Egyptian temple, Egyptologists Pete Murray and Rod Emmons stumble upon a mysterious wand that hums with forgotten power. When their discovery lands them in a perilous situation, they must use the wand’s magic not to gain more, but to undo everything it’s ever done—erasing its presence, and their memories of it, to return to the world as it was before.
