☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn Secrets of the Unknown #97, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko deliver a chilling tale of time and consequence with "The Game of Death!" Set in 2050, a prisoner escapes to alter the past—only to find himself powerless to change fate, his body intangible as he confronts the one man who saw his crime. Paul Reinman’s cover captures the eerie tension of a man trapped between moments, while Ditko’s art and Lee’s storytelling weave a haunting meditation on inevitability.
When the Gorilla-Man breaks free from his confinement, he sets out to reverse his transformation—only to be hurled into the void aboard an experimental space capsule, leaving his fate uncertain among the stars.
In the year 2050, a prisoner obsessed with a time machine escapes custody, determined to erase the only witness to his crime by traveling back to the past. But when he arrives, he finds himself unable to touch or harm the man—his body passing through like a ghost, powerless to alter what has already happened.
