Strange Tales of the Unusual #8
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Who Dwells Below?", a chemist stands accused of murder after his partner is found dead at the bottom of the stairs, but he swears he’s innocent—claiming he was using his invisibility potion to rob a bank. With no proof but his word and a burned formula, he’s trapped in a desperate race to clear his name, while the truth lies just beneath the surface. Written and illustrated by John Tartaglione with lettering by Joe Letterese, this 1957 tale of science, suspicion, and unseen danger features a striking cover by Carl Burgos.
In "The Too-Perfect Crime!" from Strange Tales of the Unusual #8 (1957), a chemist is arrested for the murder of his partner after the body is found at the bottom of the stairs and a note suggests a bitter quarrel. The twist? He was using his invisibility potion to rob the bank at the time—just not in a way the police are willing to believe.
In "The Disappearance," a test pilot finds himself whisked 5,000 years into the past when his experimental aircraft exceeds known limits, marrying the daughter of a Pharaoh before vanishing again into the present. Though court-martialed for his unbelievable tale, evidence from an Egyptian excavation—where the very same plane is discovered buried in a royal crypt—begins to lend his story an eerie credibility.
In "Nobody Will Ever Know!" from Strange Tales of the Unusual #8 (1957), a man who’s always felt invisible finds himself suddenly empowered by a cosmic ray strike—giving him the ability to stand up to threats he once could only fear. Though his powers fade, the experience leaves him changed, seeing the world with a quiet confidence he never had before.
