Journey into Unknown Worlds #33
In "The Man in the Box!", a tiny green-clad man lives in a miniature box, emerging each night to quietly help others. When a thief steals his home and demands to know how to shrink himself, the kind-hearted little man—drawn by Bill Benulis and inked by Jack Abel—relents, unaware of the trouble his generosity might cause. The cover, a striking illustration by Carl Burgos, captures the story’s eerie charm.

The story of a little (roughly inch tall) man who lives in a little green box and comes out every night to do a good deed. One day a burglar steals his box and asks the little man to tell him the secret of how to be as small as he is so that he can rob banks. Unfortunately, the little man is nice enough to show him how.
