When space pilot Meteor Martin crash-lands on the strange planet Gorikon, he rescues a young woman named Rana from savage attackers and meets her father, Romrak—only to learn they're all trapped in a negative universe, cast there by Martian weapons. As Meteor helps them escape the planet's brutal ruler Groob and his gang, the trio finds themselves facing an even more terrifying threat: a giant insect monster and the bizarre creatures that dwell in Gorikon's mysterious caverns. Can Meteor save Rana from the creature's clutches, or will he and his newfound allies perish in this alien world?

Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, this 1942 two-pager delivers a classic slapstick mix of confusion and domestic chaos.

Can she overcome the odds and discover what secrets The Trigger is so determined to protect?
