What Is the Answer?
1 pp · non-fiction; science fiction
Franz HapsburgJohn

A young woman in Bussus-Bussuel, France, possesses an inexplicable ability—answers to questions materialize on her skin before she can even speak them—while elsewhere, the Hapsburg family has long reported the appearance of a white dove at moments of mortal danger, and across Europe, documented cases of houses plagued by spontaneous, inexplicable fires defy rational explanation. "What Is the Answer?" explores these three puzzling phenomena in a collection of strange-but-true reports that blur the line between the impossible and the authenticated.

Adonis 2-PX-89Venus I-XP-98BlepShlepMamieTwo Machine-Gun GusGenevieve McCoin

When Blyntzyn war-scouts Shlep and Blep land their flying saucer on Earth, they devise a brilliant plan to conquer the planet: inject their service robots Adonis 2-PX-89 and Venus I-XP-98 with a supercharged magnetism fluid to make them irresistibly attractive to humans, rendering our species powerless. But the scheme goes awry when the two love-robots develop genuine feelings for each other, forcing their creators to make a desperate choice. A delightfully twisted 1951 tale where the invaders' own weapon becomes the instrument of their undoing.

Captain John Strong rallies the colonists with a bold plan to survive on the hostile frontier, but Maddock makes his final move, hijacking the spaceship and demanding the settlers abandon their new home.

When Ned Farnsworth's sickly ward Billy stands to inherit a fortune, the boy's uncle hatches a deadly plot to ensure the inheritance passes to him instead—but his scheme unravels when the mysterious Dr. Zervis arrives to perform a miraculous operation. As Ned's carefully laid plans crumble around him, something far stranger than murder begins to unfold, and a spectral force delivers its own brand of justice in "Death's Double," illustrated with the eerie precision this tale demands.

Asteroid Treasure
7 pp · science fiction
Bob BrightGaffyStan RogersJune Rogers

Captain Bright and his crew venture into the treacherous asteroid belt beyond Mars, hunting for a uranium-rich treasure asteroid on behalf of June Rogers—but Stan Rogers harbors dangerous suspicions about their true motives, and sabotage from unexpected quarters threatens to strand them all in the void. As the search intensifies and the treasure is finally located, loyalty fractures and survival itself becomes the real prize in this high-stakes space adventure.

Moon Theory
1 pp · science fiction

"Moon Theory" presents a fascinating scientific hypothesis: that Earth's moon was once part of our planet, torn away by a massive meteor collision billions of years ago when the Earth was still forming. The story traces how this catastrophic impact left a permanent mark on our world—the vast depression that became the Pacific Ocean, and the weakened crust surrounding it that gives rise to the "Ring of Fire," home to most of Earth's active volcanoes and earthquakes.
