Reading Room: SPACE ACTION "Prisoners of the Incredible Plants"
It's the end of the week, so let's "veg out" with some mindless fun...
...like this never-reprinted tale about menacing alien plants from Ace's Space Action #2 (1952)
How else would you deal with alien plants but with defoliants and fire?
Art is by prolific journeyman Lou Cameron, the writer is unknown.

Reading Room: BRANT CRAIG "Hot Money Space Mob"
Counterfeiting will always be a problem, even in the 30th Century...
...as we see in this never-reprinted tale from the final issue of Youthful's Captain Science!
This "hard-boiled private-eye in space" story from Youthful's Captain Science #7 (1951) was probably illustrated by Bill Molno and Rocco Mastroserio.
The writer is unknown.

Reading Room: JET POWERS "First Man in History Who Could Not Die"
Though it has a Jet Powers logo...
...our white-haired hero is only the host/narrator for this never-reprinted tale of men, mortality, and millennia!
Illustrated by Bob Powell, this tale from Magazine Enterprises' Jet #4 (1951) might have been the start of an ongoing series of "Spaceways Sagas"...except #4 was the series' final issue!
