Reading Room WORLDS UNKNOWN "Farewell to the Master" Part 1

You know the story...sorta.
You've seen (and/or heard) the story adapted...sorta.
Now read the most faithful adaptation of the tale...short of the original novelette!








And before you go any further, "Gnut" is pronounced "Nut".

That's one of the reasons it was changed when the story by Harry Bates was adapted in 1951 into a movie...

Aw, you guessed!
As you've surmised, there were quite a few changes made when the silver screen version was created and produced!
And, when writer Roy Thomas, penciler Ross Andru and inker Wayne Howard went back to the source material for the never-reprinted Marvel's Worlds Unknown #3 (1973)...well, let's let Rascally Roy himself tell you about that...
Be Here on Thursday for the ASTOUNDING conclusion...plus some kool extras (which will explain why I capitalized "astounding"!)
