    In this first issue, the EC influence is showcased in the cover by Landon Chesney. Inside youll find Jon Jarl of the Space Police in the Ancient Secret written by Eando Binder which was the combined name of Earl and Otto Binder. This was adapted by Bill Spicer with art by Alan Weiss. The character was created back in the 40s as filler text stories for Captain Marvel Adventures. Next up is Will the Real Lance Lightning Please Sit Down! written by James Toren with artwork by Richard Grass Green who can be found in many of the early fanzines in the 60s. Following is another SF story, The Moon Ants, written and adapted by Bill Spicer, with artwork by Buddy Saunders. Buddy was one of The Texas Trio who developed Star Studded Comics and many others. The wrap up story is Adam Links Vengeance. This is another story from Eando Binder and based upon their character from early issues of Amazing Stories. The artwork here is by D. Bruce Berry. This story went on to win the 1964 Alley Award in the category Best Fan Comic Strip. This story concluded in the second issue.
