Uncanny Tales #154
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Night the Masks Were Real," Orville Kern stumbles into a surreal realm where the line between dream and reality blurs, drawn to the enigmatic Astra in a world that defies explanation. Written by Zev Zimmer and illustrated with striking detail by Chic Stone, this eerie tale from Uncanny Tales #154 (1982) unfolds with a haunting sense of wonder and unease. The cover, a moody, atmospheric piece by Dick Giordano, captures the story’s unsettling tone perfectly.
Orville Kern’s long-distance signal finally reaches Astra on a distant world, drawing him across the stars to aid her in a crisis. What begins as a heroic mission to save a dazzling alien beauty quickly unravels when the reality of her world—and her true self—doesn’t match the dream he carried across the void.
