Why Won't They Believe Me?, script by Stan Lee, art by Steve Ditko; A man believes that he has discovered an alien invasion, but he is the real alien, and has amnesia. The Last Man on Earth; A paranoid man seals himself in a bomb shelter, but instead of a war, he misses the discovery of immortality in space and the exodus of humanity. Witch Hunt; A woman accused of witchcraft is exonerated, but discovers that her fiancé really is a witch. Journey's End. The Icy Fingers of Fear. All scripts by Stan Lee, all art by Steve Ditko. Every issue in this title contains wonderful O. Henry-style stores. This series was great while it lasted, but it was short-lived because Stan admitted he couldn't come up with twist-ending stories fast enough to meet the grinding monthly publishing deadlines. Little wonder, as he was also writing most other Marvel titles at the time. 36 pgs. $0.10. Cover price $0.12.
