Reading Room OPERATION: PERIL "Time Travelers: Adventure Among the Stars" Conclusion

When Last We Left the Time Travelers...

...no, they weren't shooting it out with aliens on an airless planetoid, as this misleading Odgen Whitney cover shows, but they have been transported to Saturn, where Tom is about to do battle, unarmed, against a really big green alien...

Will the Saturnians reappear?
And if they do, will it be as friend or foe?

Only writer Richard Hughes and artist Ken Bald, who produced this tale for ACG's Operation Peril #4 (1951) know the answer!

Reading Room WEIRD TALES OF THE FUTURE "Purple Mists!"

The perils of exploring the universe are many and varied...

...as seen in this never-reprinted story from Key Publications' Weird Tales of the Future #6 (1953)!

Though it's implied that one of the guys Rex and Tom shot was Rex's brother, that point is more-or-less ignored!

The writer is unknown, but artist Hy Fleishman signed his work in the first panel.

Fleishman worked for numerous publishers during the 1950s including Atlas (later Marvel), Story, Key, and Lev Gleason in various genres including horror, war, sci-fi, western, romance, and even humor.
