Description
This features a Jack Kirby/Al Williamson cover which was edited before publication to eliminate most of the Moon's surface. From the notations on the ad it was created just 2 weeks after Sputnik went up on October 2, 1957 in order to cash in on this new space race. It lasted only 3 issues March-November 1958

I know all of these Kirby/Williamson pages are stats, but the cumulative effect of all of them together is wonderful. Also, the fact that this was put together two weeks after Sputnik adds to my fascination.
