Tales to Astonish #5

In "I Was Trapped by the Things on Easter Island!" from Tales to Astonish #5 (1959), a lone pilot crash lands on the remote island and stumbles upon a terrifying secret: the ancient statues are alive, speaking in eerie unison about a plan to conquer Earth. As he flees their pursuit and tries to warn the world, he finds himself dismissed as mad—until even his own certainty begins to crumble.

In "I Can See Tomorrow!", Willy Adams stumbles upon a golden camera with a terrifying power: it captures images of the future. At first, he uses it to cheat at gambling and gain an edge, but when he turns the lens on himself, he sees a chilling truth—his own future has already vanished.

Joe Baxter, a record store assistant with a scheme on his mind, tries to use a strange sound to knock out wealthy customer Spencer Worthington—only to realize too late that his plan backfired in a way he never expected.

Tim Korey, a space pilot, makes an unexpected landing on a nearby planet—only to discover it’s home to towering giants, making it far too dangerous to stay. His quick escape leaves him relieved, grateful that Earth’s small scale keeps it hidden from such colossal beings.
