Tales of the Unexpected #3
In "The Highway to Tomorrow," a man stumbles upon the secret to invisibility and quickly turns his fortune—until he loses the antidote that could bring him back. With his visibility now a matter of survival, he faces a choice that tests his conscience and his grasp on reality. Art by Mort Meskin and Marvin Stein brings this eerie, early sci-fi tale to life, while John Prentice’s cover captures the story’s unsettling promise.
In "The Man Nobody Could See!" from Tales of the Unexpected #3 (1956), a man who invents a formula for invisibility uses it to amass wealth in secret—until he loses the antidote. Now trapped in plain sight only to himself, he faces a desperate choice: remain unseen forever or surrender to the authorities to be seen again.
In "I Lost My Past," Paul Martin returns to his hometown only to find that everyone he once knew has no memory of him—except for a single, unsettling detail that begins to unravel a buried past. As the mystery deepens, a forgotten truth tied to a dangerous Nazi formula slowly resurfaces, threatening to rewrite everything he thought he knew.
