Reading Room WEIRD TALES OF THE FUTURE "Engine That Came Though Time!"

Is it ethical to trick someone...
...if a good result occurs because of that trickery?

Read this tale, then decide!

Was Ranu justified in doing what he did in this tale from Key Publications' Weird Tales of the Future #4 (1952), by illustrator Eugene Hughes and an unknown writer?

You tell me...

Monday Madness WEIRD MYSTERIES "Trick or Treat"

It's Almost Halloween...

...so let's have fun telling a tale of a Halloween costume party gone horribly wrong!

Illustrated by Eugene Hughes and scripted by an unknown writer, this All Hallows Eve story from Key Publications' Weird Mysteries #10 (1954) was reprinted only once until the 2010s...but in black and white and with the only alteration being a title change...

...when it appeared in Stanley Morse's Stark Terror #2 (1970).
(Morse, BTW, was the publisher of Key Publications before the company went out of business during the Dr Wertham-created "Seduction of the Innocent" scandal that almost destroyed the comic book business in the mid-1950s.
