Cuentos de Misterio #143
In "El hombre que rechazó la buena suerte," Amos Todd’s Museum of Worthless Inventions becomes the unlikely center of a storm of impossible breakthroughs when a flash of light changes everything. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Bernard Baily, this 1968 tale from Editorial Novaro follows Todd as he discovers his once-ridiculed inventions suddenly work—only to face a sudden, mysterious collapse. The cover, a striking collaboration by Carmine Infantino, Joe Orlando, and George Roussos, captures the story’s eerie, high-stakes atmosphere.
In the rain-lashed streets of a forgotten town, Amos Todd tends his peculiar Museum of Worthless Inventions—until a sudden flash of lightning sets his curiosities alight. When his absurd gadgets begin to work with eerie precision, from a gold-making machine to a power pill that fuels a stranded doctor’s car, Todd finds himself caught in a storm of impossible mechanics. But when the miracles vanish as suddenly as they came, and thieves steal his most dangerous invention, he’ll need more than gadgets to uncover what truly powers the impossible.
