Five-Score Comic Monthly #20

In "The Runaway Bronc from Venus!", a 1959 tale from Five-Score Comic Monthly #20, the anniversary of a European city’s founding triggers eerie echoes of its past—events from the legendary Crimson Folio begin to repeat, revealing the book’s hidden power as a prophecy. With art by Mort Meskin and inks by George Roussos, the story unfolds as the city’s fate hangs in the balance, especially for the descendant of the one whose name appears on the final page. The cover, by Bob Brown, captures the wild, otherworldly tone of a tale where history and the unknown collide.
