“The Robot Who Lost Its Head!”

In "The Robot Who Lost Its Head!", Star Patrol officer Mike Dillon—always the runner-up, content with silver medals—finds his perceived shortcomings become his greatest asset when the very medals he’s long viewed as symbols of failure unlock a hidden ability to breach an alien stronghold. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Carmine Infantino, this 1962 Strange Adventures tale blends sci-fi intrigue with a quiet character moment, all framed by Murphy Anderson’s striking cover.
