Reading Room STRANGE WORLDS "I Captured the Abominable SnowMan"

From the epic story of an underground civilization by Jack Kirby, we go to...
...this rather intimate story of one man's obsession with Yeti, illustrated by Steve Ditko!
Like the Abominable SnowMan story we ran for the past couple of days, no one (including Marvel) is certain who scripted this tale from Strange Worlds #1 (1958).
And, you'll note that neither tale shows the "real" Yeti, just people or other creatures mistaken for it!
BTW, this was the second comic with the Strange Worlds title.
The first one was published by Avon Comics from 1950 to 1955.
This series ran for five issues in 1958-59.
Since then there have been several one-shots from various publishers, usually reprinting stories from the Avon series.
