Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko, with colors by Stan Goldberg and letters by Artie Simek, the story unfolds with eerie precision, building tension in a world where the line between display and life is dangerously thin. The cover by Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko captures the unsettling mood perfectly.

The mannequins in a store come to life in a creepy atmosphere as it closes. However, this is not thought odd by anyone, because on this alien world all people are made of wax, and some work as mannequins, but leave with everyone else at closing.
