Adventures into Terror #24 (Atlas/Marvel, Oct 1953)
Cover pencils by Sol Brodsky. Inside: “The Wax Men” (Joe Sinnott) — a lonely man dines with wax figures he calls his family; “The Body Snatchers” (Al Luster) — corpses rise for revenge against a corrupt doctor; “Juggernaut” (Gene Colan) — a priest convinces his flock to sacrifice themselves under a rolling cart; “Tennis Anyone?” — a macabre match with a racket strung from human intestines; and “The Last Man” (Russ Heath) — a robber finds himself alone in a guilt-driven nightmare of alien abduction. Also includes the Enough Rope text story. 36 pages, full color. Cover price $0.10. Pre-Code Horror.
MAJ. PICTO’S GRADING NOTES: VG/F (5.0) – Light general wear, moderate spine stress, and faint creasing. Paper remains supple, cover colors present well, and staples are firm with no detachment. A strong mid-grade example of a classic Atlas Pre-Code Horror book with early art by Joe Sinnott, Gene Colan, and Russ Heath.
