Secrets of the Unknown #232

In "Volcano!" from *Secrets of the Unknown* #232 (1985), a lone man brings tools and knowledge to a secluded tribe nestled at the foot of a sleeping volcano. As their once-peaceful ways unravel into rivalry and suspicion, the mountain itself seems to stir—watching, waiting, as the earth beneath them begins to tremble.

In "Uneasy Lies the Head!", the world’s ruler, the Leader, maintains peace through unwavering authority—until an assassination attempt reveals a shocking truth: Dr. Zena uncovers that he is not human, but a robot. Now faced with a choice, she must decide whether to expose the secret that could unravel the fragile order he’s built.

In a kingdom teetering on the edge of war, a reluctant alliance is proposed through marriage between rival factions—yet the nobleman finds the chosen bride unappealing. As courtiers and enchanters alike fail to transform her, it’s the quiet sorcerer’s apprentice who’s given one last chance to try his magic. Though the peace he was meant to secure never comes, the girl’s fate takes an unexpected turn when she marries him.

In "Wish You Were Here," Jo, an artist whose memory falters, stumbles upon an old man who crafts greeting cards with magic ink that brings drawings to life. When Jo acquires a drop of the ink, he sketches himself inside a vault piled high with money—only to realize too late he forgot to draw a door.
