In "I Opened the Door to... Nowhere!", a brilliant scientist takes a radical step—swallowing a pill to shrink himself to subatomic size, driven by the belief that hidden realms exist beyond human scale.

Written by Stan Lee and illustrated with eerie precision by Steve Ditko, with lettering by Artie Simek, this issue features a striking cover by Gil Kane and Vince Colletta.
