Reading Room: BLAST-OFF! 3 Rocketeers "Great Moon Mystery"

Three-day weekend coming up.
Let's blow your mind...
Art by Joe Simon, Jack Kirby, and Al Williamson.
...with a tale that starts with finding an unconscious TV star on the Moon and gets wilder and wilder...
IIRC, Carl Sagan postulated a similar concept decades later about wormhole travel in the novel Cosmos...
Intended for the never-published Race for the Moon #4 (1960), this Jack Kirby/Al Williamson collaboration finally saw print in Harvey's Blast-Off #1 (1965), long after Kirby, along with Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, and others began the amazing resurrection of the almost-defunct Atlas Comics line into Marvel Comics!
