Wells' "The Time Machine," featuring art by comics legend Alex Toth. H.G. Wells' Time Traveler builds his machine in Victorian London and travels to the far future of humankind. Unfortunately, by then the human race has divided into the placid, surface-dwelling Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks. The Time Traveler is caught up in the conflict between complacency and savagery. Plus photos from the movie, and a biography of author H.G. Wells credited to the film's producer George Pal. The Time Machine; About H.G. Wells by George Pal. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
