Reading Room LOST WORLDS "Alice in TerrorLand"

We ran a humorous variation of Alice in Wonderland HERE......
... but here's a story based on Lewis Carroll's tale that combines sci-fi, and a fear many children experience at one time or another...

Penciled by Alex Toth and inked by Mike Peppe, this tale from Standard's Lost Worlds #5 (1952) takes the common kids' fear of toys coming to life and adds imagery from Lewis Carroll's Alice tales to an alien invasion scenario to create a wonderfully-creepy story.
Sadly, the writer of this wild tale is unknown.

Reading Room LOST WORLDS "Worlds Apart"

"Submitted for your approval, a romantic triangle with unequal sides..."
"...because one point of this scalene triangle is firmly entrenched...in the Twilight Zone!"
(It works if you read it in a Rod Serlingesque voice.)
Cue Twilight Zone theme music...
While the writer for this story from Standard's sci-fi anthology title Lost Worlds #5 (1952) is unknown, the art is by Nick Cardy, who began his career in the Golden Age and kept working up until he passed in 2013!
Happy Valentine's Day!
