Holiday Reading Room JOURNEY INTO UNKNOWN WORLDS "They Wait in the Shadows!"

You saw a later version of this tale HERE...

...but this is the original story, behind a very misleading, but extremely-kool, cover by Bill Everett!

Illustrated by Bob Forgione and scripted by an unknown writer, this story from Atlas' Journey into Unknown Worlds #47 (1956) was more "hard" science-fiction and less "science-fantasy" than the later tale following the same basic plot!

But they're both equally-good at getting the Yuletide message across, eh?

Holiday Reading Room JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY "Monsters on Mercury!"

Though it doesn't look like it...

...this is a Yuletide story, and thus, an appropriate entry into the Holiday Reading Room!

This long-forgotten Stan Lee/Steve Ditko tale from Atlas' Journey into Mystery #78 (1962) wasn't the first time this concept was used!

Monday Madness CHRISTMAS WITH MOTHER GOOSE "Christmas Problem of the Woman in the Shoe"

We presented a Yuletide story of the classic Old Woman Who Lives in a Shoe HERE...

...but it wasn't Walt (Pogo) Kelly's first visit to the unique domicile filled with children!

Written and illustrated by Kelly, this never-reprinted story from Dell's Four Color Comics: Christmas with Mother Goose #90 (1945) was Walt's first take on the concept!

Which one do you think is better?
