“The Menace of Radiation Rogue”

In "The Menace of Radiation Rogue," a corrupt police chief’s scheme to build a massive prison for personal glory backfires when he imprisons an innocent bystander—only to discover the man is an alien leader whose people respond to his captivity in ways that expose the chief’s deception. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated with sharp, eerie precision by Steve Ditko, this story blends sci-fi intrigue with a chilling twist on authority and justice. The cover by Paul Reinman captures the moment of revelation with tense, dramatic flair.
