In "The Giant from Beyond!", Earth braces for the return of its first deep-space mission from Alpha Centauri—only to be stunned when two identical starships arrive, each carrying a duplicate crew. With no way to tell which group is genuine, paranoia sets in as the real threat hides in plain sight. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Frank Giacoia, this mind-bending tale of identity and deception is brought to life with striking art, while the cover by Gil Kane and Bernard Sachs captures the eerie suspense of the unknown.
