Painted cover art by George Wilson. "Korak and the Spider People," script by Gaylord Du Bois, art by Dan Spiegle; While attempting to escape from the forbidden section of Pal-ul-don, Korak and his two Waz-don friends are chased into a canyon maze by a wild bull; There they are separated, and Korak comes up against a giant spider, which moves so fast that it soon has him wound up in web; Instead of eating him, however, it carries him to a lost valley where a race of seven-foot men, called Tukliks, enslave all outsiders (the reason no one has returned from the forbidden land).; They pass overseers working slaves in the fields, and Korak is taken to work in the quarries; One man attempts to escape by climbing the cliffs, but a trained spider overtakes him and he leaps to his death to escape; Korak befriends a slave who tells him further horror stories; At the dinner feeding trough, Korak meets Pan-at-lee and Om-at, who were also captured by the spiders; That night Korak manages to climb up Om-at's back and leap over the fence just after the guard passes by; He jumps the guard and takes his clothes, spraying himself with the special scent that causes the spider to recognize him as a master. "The Limit of the Bag" text story. "The Jaws of Death," script by Gaylord Du Bois, art by Tom Massey. "Plesiosaur" Dinosauria article. 36 pgs., full color. Cover price $0.15.
