Mister Mystery #18
In "The Devil's Bottles!", scientist Fozzmo—brilliant but grotesque—builds a mechanical companion to match his intellect, only to face chaos when his creation turns against him. The story unfolds with a chilling blend of mad science and unintended consequences, all rendered in the wild, expressive style of Basil Wolverton. The cover, by Bernard Baily, captures the moment’s eerie tension with bold, dynamic lines.
