☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Werewolves From Hydra-Hell," Mysta of the Moon finds herself drawn to Earth as the planet heats dangerously, a crisis masked by the sinister machinations of a greedy corporation—though the true threat lies beneath, with the Sub-Earthlings plotting to seize the surface. Written by Ross Gallun and illustrated by Fran Hopper, this 1947 adventure blends pulp sci-fi and supernatural dread in a tale where the real danger is far below the world's surface. The cover, a striking collaboration by Joe Doolin and John Celardo, captures the eerie tension of the underground menace.
A desperate race unfolds as Hunt Bowman and his allies scramble to reach a hidden time capsule in Luray Caverns before the invading Voltamen—who've intercepted clues about atomic secrets buried by Earth's scientists. With a borrowed train and the clock running out, Hunt and Lyssa venture into the cave, only to find themselves caught in an invisible, hypnotic force that the Voltamen have unleashed to clear the land and claim the capsule themselves.
Mysta of the Moon arrives on Earth to find a planet in crisis, its skies choked and temperatures soaring—blamed on a ruthless corporation’s greed. But as she investigates, she uncovers a deeper threat: the hidden Sub-Earthlings, whose underground society is stirring with plans to seize control of the surface world.
