    Cover by Joe Kubert. Stories and art by Joe Kubert, Alex Toth and Norman Maurer. Numbering continues from 3-D Comics Tor (1953 St. John) #2C.

Tor tries to help a tribe escape a volcanic island that is collapsing into the sea. Tor defends a village from the raiding Flatnose tribe, and helps an all-female tribe settle differences with their neighbors. Co-creators Joe Kubert and Norman Maurer put themselves into the comic to discuss the science and history of the Tor series. Plus full-page dinosaur illustrations (including a pteranodon) by Kubert. Isle of Fire!; Snow Trap; Black Valley; 1,000,000 B.C. History of Prehistoric Animals: Pteranodon, Tylosaurus; Danny Dreams. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
