Strange Adventures #229

This 1971 DC giant packs 64 pages of super science-fiction into one quarter, and the cover — rendered by Murphy Anderson — sets an appropriately eerie tone: a diverse procession of strange beings, including a green-skinned alien, a cloaked figure, and several others of varied and unsettling appearance, march single-file along what appears to be a dark, otherworldly path, with the ominous headline asking "What was the strange doom awaiting those doomed to walk… The Last Mile of Space?" Inside, readers get seven tales featuring Adam Strange, the Atomic Knights, and more, with contributions highlighted from Walter B. Gibson (creator of The Shadow) and illustrator Virgil Finlay. A genuinely fun anthology package from DC's Silver Age reprint era, offering a lot of imaginative storytelling for a single coin.
