Tales to Astonish #31

When archaeologist Paul Kentworth unearths an ancient mummy in the desert, he doesn’t realize it’s not a corpse—but an alien survivor trapped for millennia.

With Gloria Carstairs, Jason Wilkes, and Mr. Carstairs caught in the unfolding mystery, the line between ancient myth and cosmic horror blurs.

In a forgotten house on the edge of town, Stephen Dwane stumbles upon a series of cryptic notes written in an alien tongue, each hinting at a shapeshifter posing as a human to weaken Earth from within. The chilling evidence includes a photograph of the impostor—posing as Soviet Premier Nikita Kruschev—while Kusoom watches from the shadows, caught between disbelief and dread.
