Strange Adventures #7

Strange Adventures #7 brings DC's "Amazing Science-Fiction Tales" banner to vivid, unsettling life with a cover by Bob Oksner and Bernard Sachs that pits a terrified woman in red against an army of enormous ants swarming a crumbling skyscraper. The cover's bold question — "Who Will Rule the Earth Tomorrow?" — sets the stage for the featured story, "The World of Giant Ants: An Astounding Prophecy!" inside. At a dime for 52 big pages, this 1951 anthology is a fine snapshot of the era's appetite for science-fiction thrills.
