Notes:
Reprints of FOUR tales of science fiction and the imagination spanning the years 1956 through 1962.

It's interesting to note that two of this issue's stories first appeared in TALES TO ASTONISH #1, the title in whose pages would within several years be found Ant-Man, the Hulk and Sub-Mariner (and with TTA #102 THE INCREDIBLE HULK took over and retained the numbering of this title).

This issue's cover is an adaptation (with some original elements intact) of Jack Kirby's original cover illustration for TALES TO ASTONISH #1 (Jan. 1959).
