☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Space Sissy" kicks off in Forbidden Worlds #108 with Arthur Mellon, a man whose obsession with perfecting a cigarette filter leads to a strange, dizzying experience after testing his latest prototype. When he starts noticing impossible coincidences—like reading about an assassination and a sudden stock market boom before they happen—his life takes a surreal turn. Ogden Whitney’s distinctive art brings the eerie, dreamlike tone to life, both in the story and on the cover, where he handles all pencils and inks.
In "Facing the Future," Arthur Mellon’s experiment with a new cigarette filter leads to a dizzying chain of events that blurs the line between prediction and reality. After smoking the new filters, he reads a newspaper predicting an assassination and a sudden stock market surge—only to find the paper missing and the events unfolding in real time. With nothing but a hunch and his savings, he bets big on the oil company, setting off a series of unsettling coincidences.
