In "Watch Out for A-214!" from Forbidden Worlds #126, a tiny infiltrator posing as an infant slips into Cargill's Army post in Vietnam, turning the tide of suspicion when he mistakes Jo for the legendary Magicman. With the real hero forced to act, a tense game of deception unfolds as the truth behind the disguise begins to unravel.
In "The Most Human Guy I Ever Knew!", Lenore Mills, a brilliant scientist still grieving the loss of her fiancé Jim, leads a space mission when an alien resembling Jim—down to his mannerisms and voice—appears to protect her and the crew from their own kind. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story explores the fragile line between memory and identity, as Lenore confronts a being who feels like Jim, but is not.
