Marvila, la Mujer Maravilla #86
In "Preso en una probeta," Ray’s latest marriage proposal hits a snag when jewel thefts plague Ivytown—each crime committed with eerie, invisible precision. The Atom, caught in a platinum chess set during a match, narrowly escapes a poison-fumed trap and races to expose the culprit, only to find himself tangled in a mystery involving a reclusive reporter, Greg Philips, and a mind-altering formula from a dead scientist. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Gil Kane and Murphy Anderson, this 1962 issue from Editorial Novaro delivers a clever, suspenseful tale with a cover by Gil Kane and Murphy Anderson that captures the story’s intrigue in bold, striking detail.
In "Preso en una probeta," a cunning spy infiltrates the world of science by posing as a respected researcher, all to steal the secrets of Professor Loring’s dangerous super weapons. When Jean uncovers the deception through fingerprints, Ray Palmer calls on a legendary ally—The Atom—who swiftly teleports to Budapest to expose the truth. With a mix of quick thinking and size-shifting daring, The Atom outwits the spies in a tense showdown that turns a laboratory into a battlefield of wits and physics.
In "Las joyas desaparecidas," Jo is caught between Ray’s latest proposal and a string of mysterious jewelry thefts that defy explanation. When the Atom narrowly escapes a poisoned box and uses a platinum chess set as a hiding spot—only for it to vanish mid-game—chaos unfolds in Ivytown. With the town gripped by invisible crimes and a reporter wielding mind-over-matter powers from a dead scientist’s pills, even the hero’s cleverest moves might not be enough to solve the case.
