☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Experiment Existence," Mysta uncovers a conspiracy where the Humanist political party is being set up for terrorist acts they didn’t commit. Faking her own death, she goes undercover to unravel the truth, using her wits and courage to expose those behind the scheme. Written by Ross Gallun and illustrated by Fran Hopper, with a striking cover by Joe Doolin, this 1947 issue blends political intrigue with the daring spirit of early superhero tales.
When Jupiterians revive their fallen leader Auro by fusing an Earthling's brain with his dead body, they create an impossible hybrid—one being, two clashing natures. But Auro's rival Saturo seizes the moment to conduct a darker experiment of his own, and soon Jupiter faces invasion from within and without. As science and treachery collide, Auro must confront a nightmarish creation that may be beyond even his power to stop.
In "The Scientist Election," Mysta takes a dangerous gamble to clear the Humanist party of false charges, faking her own death to infiltrate the shadows behind the conspiracy. With her wits and courage, she dives into a web of deception where truth is the most volatile weapon.
