Tales to Astonish #11
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "I Found Monstrom! The Dweller in the Black Swamp!", a man’s desperate bid to gain fame by reactivating a forbidden robot backfires when he realizes too late that the machine was never a threat—only misunderstood. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with art by Don Heck and inks by the same, this 1960 Marvel classic explores guilt, redemption, and the cost of recognition. The cover by Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers captures the eerie mystery of the Black Swamp, hinting at a story where fear and truth collide.
In "I Dared to Look into the Beyond!", scientist Carl constructs a time machine with the hope of proving the future is unwritten—only to find himself staring into a world where Earth has been left behind. When his colleague Derek questions the results, Carl is forced to confront the unsettling truth that some futures may already be real, even if they haven't happened yet.
When an artist crafts a mask inspired by the legendary sorcerer Drothor, he doesn’t expect it to change him—yet when he dons it to steal from a mansion, his own face begins to shift, mirroring the ancient evil he sought to emulate. Markas finds himself trapped in a nightmare where the line between creator and creation blurs, and the mask’s power may be more than he ever imagined.
