In "The Wheel of Fate!", Johnny Peril and Donna Rome venture into the mysterious Lost Caverns of Kentucky, chasing clues to Donna’s missing father. When they’re ambushed by a colony of giant moths, Johnny fights off the king moth only to be taken by the queen, who intends to make him her new king. Their escape hinges on a perilous passage through a cavern of erupting flames, narrowly outrunning the scorching pursuit. Written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated with sharp precision by Alex Toth, with inks by Sy Barry, this tale blends adventure and eerie wonder. The cover, by Carmine Infantino and Frank Giacoia, captures the moment of dread and suspense.

In "The Wheel of Fate!" from Sensation Comics #108 (1952), archeologist Edgar Preston stumbles upon an ancient scroll etched with a mysterious wheel, each segment showing a different chapter of a man’s life—strangely, the man bears Preston’s own face. As the images begin to unfold in reality, Preston finds himself caught in a series of terrifying events mirroring the scenes he’s seen: cast adrift on a desolate island, accused of murder in the desert, and sentenced to execution—all before he can decipher the wheel’s true meaning.
