In "Frozen Alive!", a man watches as Jupiter’s soldiers land on Earth to repair their ship after a war with Martians—only to steal the craft and flee with its cargo. What he thinks are dead Martian ruins turn out to be something far more dangerous: the Martians themselves, preserved in radioactive stone. Steve Ditko handles both pencils and inks for the story, while Bill Everett delivers the cover art.

In "The Vanishing Martians," a man on Earth finds himself unexpectedly overseeing the landing of a Jupiterian spacecraft after a war with Martians. When he steals the craft in hopes of plundering Martian ruins, he discovers the so-called wreckage is something far stranger—radioactive rocks that may not be dead at all.
