☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "I Dream of Doom!", Frank Atwell’s waking life is haunted by relentless nightmares of a pursuing monster—until a sedative plunges him into a slumber so deep, the dream becomes reality. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber and brought to life by Jack Kirby’s dynamic art and Dick Ayers’ sharp inks, this 1962 Strange Tales standout flips perception on its head, leaving the line between dream and reality dangerously blurred. The cover by Kirby and Ayers captures the dread with a single, haunting image of the unseen threat closing in.

He discovers his dream world is the real world, and he is its king, while the mundane world was a dream, or was it?
