☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "I Brought Zog Back to Life!", Jack Kirby crafts a pulse-pounding sci-fi tale where a space explorer’s attempt to profit from alien seeds spirals into a nightmare when they sprout into monstrous lifeforms. Kirby’s dynamic art, with inks by Dick Ayers, brings the creeping threat to vivid life, as the explorer races to outwit the creatures by exploiting their fatal need for water. The cover, a striking collaboration by Marie Severin, captures the eerie tension of the story’s central horror.
When a massive alien giant is discovered frozen in a glacier, panic spreads through the town—until scientist Charles Burton takes a bold stand. Determined to prove the creature, named Zog, poses no threat, he risks everything to bring it back to life.
In "The Painting," art dealer Simon Squeed makes a ruthless bargain with a gypsy over a hauntingly beautiful canvas—only to steal it after having the man arrested on false charges. When the gypsy is freed and tracks him down, he discovers the truth in the dealer’s apartment: Simon Squeed has become part of the very painting he tried to claim.
In "I Planted the Seeds of Doom!", space explorer Hank Garnett stumbles upon a strange alien plant whose seeds he unknowingly sells—only to realize too late they’re the first step in a terrifying invasion. As monstrous growths spread across the planet, Hank must outwit the creatures by exploiting their deadly dependence on water, turning their own biology against them.
In "I Shrunk Away to Nothing!", Brad takes a desperate gamble to save his brother’s life by answering an ad from Prof. Ace, a scientist testing a mysterious shrinking ray. Volunteering as a subject, Brad is soon shrunk down past the scale of everyday objects, tumbling into a hidden world where the familiar becomes alien. When he finally meets a native and asks what this place is called, the answer sends a chill through his shrinking mind: "Earth."
