Marvel Tales #134

From 1955, this Atlas-era anthology delivers exactly what its cover promises: "Tales to Capture Your Imagination." Carl Burgos's cover depicts a massive, glowing flying saucer hovering over a darkened cityscape, its hatch open as green-suited figures descend a beam of light toward a startled crowd of onlookers — with a small child standing alone in the saucer's eerie glow, teasing the story snippet "…And a Little Child…!" Inside, Joe Kubert and inker Sy Moskowitz bring their craft to bear on "The Lonely House" and other brand-new Marvel Tales. A ten-cent slice of mid-'50s science fiction and mystery storytelling that still feels charged with wonder.
