“Space-Island of Peril!”

In "Space-Island of Peril!", two explorers make a startling discovery aboard a derelict alien vessel: hibernation chambers holding a mysterious woman and a robot that shouldn’t be asleep. As the woman awakens, claiming to be a space policewoman, and the robot insists he’s a prisoner, their strange questions about Earth’s rarest treasures set off quiet alarms. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Mike Sekowsky, with inks by Bernard Sachs, this issue features a cover by Carmine Infantino and Joe Giella that captures the eerie allure of the unknown — a 10-cent adventure in 1961 that lingers long after the final page.
