Tales Twice Told WEIRD TALES OF THE FUTURE "Jonah"
In 1950s science fiction, the technology available in the year 2000 was truly amazing...
...it's a pity we didn't really have this stuff when the Millennium came about!
When this story was published in Key's Weird Tales of the Future #6 (1953), we really thought we'd have moving sidewalks, flying cars, interplanetary travel, and shrinking rays by 2000!
The writer is unknown, but the artist is Tony Mortellaro.
Be here Thursday, when we show how this story was retold in 1971!

Monday Madness WEIRD TALES OF THE FUTURE "Day of Doom"
It's Monday, which many of us considered, pre-coronavirus, to be the...
But we didn't mean the phrase quite as literally as this apocalyptic tale which...well, read for yourself...
Talk about "everything but the kitchen sink"!
Us vs Commies!
Commies vs Aliens!
Aliens vs Us!
Evacuation of the Earth!
Destruction of the Moon!
Finally, to top it all off...Atlantis Rising!
And all that in only seven pages!
This story from Key's Weird Tales of the Future #4 (1952) could, with a little updating, make a helluva feature film or TV mini-series!
While the writer is unknown, the artist was Tony Mortellaro, who did hundreds of tales in various genres for Key and Atlas/Marvel, (where he became Associate Art Director under John Romita in the 1970s).

Ever feel like you're totally-insignificant?
Well, there might be a very good reason, as shown in Key's Weird Tales of the Future #6 (1953)!
