☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Klagg! His Mission: Destroy Mankind!", a disgruntled inventor flees his scheming boss by activating a time machine—only to crash-land in a prehistoric world where modern power sources are nowhere to be found. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with dynamic art by Dick Ayers and lettering by Joe Letterese, this 1973 Marvel classic blends sci-fi suspense with a timeless underdog tale. The cover by Jim Starlin and Frank Giacoia captures the eerie tension of a man out of time, stranded where the past is still very much alive.
In a 1973 tale of cosmic fury, Klagg—an alien visitor to Earth—reaches a breaking point when he discovers humanity still clings to war, prompting him to declare an all-out assault on the planet’s nations. With Philip and Claire caught in the escalating conflict, the fate of Earth hangs in the balance as one alien’s rage threatens to consume them all.
When inventor Harry Brown’s boss, Albert Poole, attempts to steal his groundbreaking time machine, Harry activates it in desperation—only to find himself stranded in a prehistoric age, far from the electricity he needs to return. With Poole’s betrayal still fresh and no power source in sight, Harry must survive in a world where his greatest invention is now his only hope.
