Deadly Horror Stories #[nn]
In "The Goddess of the Silvery Moon," scientist Lenore Mills—still grieving the loss of her fiancé Jim, killed in Vietnam—rises to fame as a pioneer in space exploration, leading a mission that takes her beyond Earth. When a chameleon-like alien mimics Jim’s face and mannerisms to protect her and the crew from their own kind, Lenore must confront the unsettling truth of what—or who—she’s truly defending. Written by Brad Everson and illustrated by George Wilhelms, this eerie tale blends grief, identity, and the unknown in a 1980 horror classic.
