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 "Death Stroke"

"High Adventure" Takes Many Forms...

...but the key is showing how humans overcome near-impossible challenges no matter the time or place!

Written by Louise Simonson and illustrated by Steve Leialoha, this kool, never-reprinted, story about the human spirit from Marvel's Amazing High Adventure #1 (1984) was part of a daring experiment to expand the graphic storytelling audience.
Sadly, it didn't sell, despite the numerous name-value creators who participated in the project, including (in this issue alone) Bill Sienkiewicz, Steve Englehart, John Severin, and Ann Nocenti!
