☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Forbidden Worlds" #63 is an anthology featuring at least two stories. "The Stranger in the Hill" tells of a soldier who encounters a mysterious ape-like creature that enters his body, causing strange transformations and granting it human form, ultimately leading the soldier to sacrifice his own identity so his beloved Laura can be happy with the creature in human guise. "When Duty Calls!" follows Professor Weaver, a brilliant but isolated mathematician whose groundbreaking theories are dismissed by colleagues until Dean Parker offers him resources, only for Weaver to mysteriously vanish, leaving Cox and Barton to debate whether his revolutionary work was genuine or a hoax by a charlatan.
A mysterious figure arrives in a small Southern town and takes up residence in an old mansion on the hill, sparking wild rumors and creeping dread among the locals—but when Sheriff Murdoch finally investigates, he discovers that the reclusive stranger is actually Alexander Morrison, a once-renowned scientist whose personal quest has taken an extraordinary turn. What began as whispered fears about a strange outsider becomes something far more complex as the truth behind the barred doors unfolds.
When Clark Reynolds receives a mysterious pair of binoculars from Germany, a glance through them from his Manhattan penthouse reveals something impossible—a tiger attacking a woman in the park below, moments before it actually happens. Racing to prevent the tragedy, Clark finds himself caught between saving a stranger's life and grappling with the inexplicable gift that showed him the future, only to discover the binoculars vanish and the woman's connection to them runs far deeper than chance.
At a Portuguese home for blind children, Professor Antonio Fonseca has spent fifty years teaching, yet wrestles with the feeling he's done too little—until his seventieth birthday wish, made with a heart full of longing, sets something miraculous in motion. When the children awake the next morning with an impossible gift, they speak of a dream visit from the professor himself, and discover that his greatest sacrifice has given them what he always hoped to provide.
Professor Weaver, a brilliant but scorned mathematician, is mysteriously transported to the planet Pluto, where alien inhabitants desperately need his expertise to complete a powerful time ray—the only weapon that can stop an imminent invasion by the destructive Raiders of Xenon. Racing against time, Weaver must finish the calculations a dead Plutonian scientist left behind, knowing that the fate of multiple worlds hangs on his success. A tale of vindication and unexpected heroism from Forbidden Worlds #63.
