In "Battle of the Moon Monsters!", Gardner Fox and artists Mike Sekowsky with Frank Giacoia deliver a thrilling early sci-fi adventure from 1960, where the peaceful Kull’s network of space lighthouses—meant to warn travelers of dangerous anti-matter blotches—takes an unexpected turn when one drifts into Earth’s solar system. Two Earthmen are captured by the Zarran, the Kull’s ancient foes, who plan to weaponize the lighthouse’s crystals to flood the Kull’s planet with deadly radiation. With the help of the Earthmen, the Zarran attempt to counter the threat, leading to a tense confrontation in the void. Gil Kane’s dynamic cover perfectly captures the cosmic stakes, making this a standout entry in the series’ early run.
