“Listen, Earth -- I Am Still Alive!”

The September 1961 issue of My Greatest Adventure leads with the irresistible premise of "I Was the Burma Tiger-Man!" — and the cover by Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff delivers an arresting scene to match. A muscular, tiger-striped figure crouches in a dense jungle, half-man and half-beast, while two armed soldiers on a ridge above take aim, unaware that their quarry's anguished thought balloon reads: "My own men gunning me! They don't know what's happened to me — and I have no way of telling them!" It's a wonderfully tense snapshot of the era's science-fiction anthology storytelling, pairing jungle atmosphere with genuine human dread in a single unforgettable image.
