Secrets of the Unknown #245
In "Put Them All Together, They Spell S.P.I.D.E.R.!", three young historians embark on a daring quest to prove ancient African mariners reached the New World—only to find themselves swept across the ocean and into the past, among the ancient Aztecs. After narrowly escaping their captors, they plunge over a waterfall and return to the present, forever changed by the strange evidence they’ve brought back. The story unfolds with a blend of historical mystery and time-bending adventure, all rendered in the distinctive style of artist Harry Lazarus, whose dynamic artwork brings the journey to life. The cover, by Dan Adkins, captures the moment of their fateful leap.
