DC's anthology of "Amazing Science-Fiction Tales" delivers a genuinely unsettling cover with Strange Adventures #17, promising a story "More Fearsome Than the Frankenstein Monster!" Gil Kane's cover art depicts two hulking, green-skinned synthetic men — one lurching menacingly in the foreground, another looming and pointing from behind a crate — as a frightened woman and a determined man in a white shirt back away in alarm. For a dime in 1952, this issue offered readers pulse-quickening sci-fi dread with "Beware the Synthetic Men!" featuring interior work by Murphy Anderson, Joe Giella, and Gaspar Saladino.
