Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AMAZING HIGH ADVENTURE "Gold!"

A Clash of Cultures is Highlighted, Both on This Cover...
...by Bill Sienkiewicz, and the story by writer Ann Nocenti and artist Tony Salmons from Marvel's Amazing High Adventure #1 (1984), neither of which has ever been reprinted!

Poetic Justice?
You tell us, dear reader!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AMAZING HIGH ADVENTURE "Door"

It's an Odd Premise to Base a Story On...

...but when it comes down to it, High Adventure can result from almost any situation!
Now that's an Amazing High Adventure!
No monsters!
No aliens!
Nothing supernatural!
Just a guy against the world...ready to keep on going!
Two extremely-underrated talents, Bill Mantlo and John Severin, produced this never-reprinted tale about the indomitable Human Spirit for Marvel's Amazing High Adventure #4 (1986), which, sadly, never had a sequel!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AMAZING HIGH ADVENTURE "Ambrose A Abernathy's Amazing Adventure Apparatus"

Behind This Tongue-Twisting Title...

...is a kool (almost) parody of those Victorian-era "scientific romances" involving a cranky elderly scientist, his beautiful daughter, the scientist's studly assistant, and a vile, venomous villain!
Coincidence?
Staying (just barely) on the razor's edge from "high camp", writer Mike Carlin and artist Gerry Taloc, who created this never-reprinted story from Marvel's Amazing High Adventure #1 (1984), know the answer...and they ain't saying!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AMAZING HIGH ADVENTURE "Monkey See, Monkey DIE!"

During the Era of Pulp High Adventure Prose Stories...

...there were few locales more exotic than Egypt, land of pharaohs' curses, demons, and still-walking mummies...or so it is said!











Written by Steve Englehart and illustrated by Mike (Hellboy) Mignola, this never-reprinted tale from Marvel's Amazing High Adventure #3 (1984) takes the "mystical Egypt" trope and tosses it on it's butt!
