Weird Fantasy #11
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Two-Century Journey!", a chilling discovery at Mr. Dorsey's pond unleashes a terrifying intelligence in the form of a liquid lifeform that absorbs the knowledge of those it dissolves—its ultimate goal, humanity’s assimilation. Written by Al Feldstein and illustrated by Joe Orlando, this eerie tale from EC’s Weird Fantasy #11 (1952) unfolds with a pulse of dread, as scientists attempt to contain the threat, only to leave a single, fateful mistake behind. The story’s unsettling premise is rendered with precision and menace, its cover by Al Feldstein capturing the creeping horror in stark, unforgettable detail.
Captain Harrison and Captain Jackson lead a generation ship on a centuries-long voyage to a distant world, only to face a startling discovery: time moves differently in space, causing passengers to age at a fraction of the normal rate. With the population growing slowly but steadily, the crew must confront the long-term consequences of their journey, especially as the President of Urd begins to question the mission’s true purpose.
In a chilling twist of science and desperation, Doctor Hugo Masterson’s experimental formula for shrinking tissue goes horribly wrong—leaving him accidentally shrunk and swallowed by his wife, Martha, in a moment that blurs the line between medical breakthrough and nightmare. With Professor Hardin caught in the aftermath, the fate of the couple hangs in the balance as the consequences of their experiment spiral beyond control.
Dr. Sanders and Professor Huxton push the limits of science with a time machine designed to capture images from the future—only to find their experiment reveals a chilling glimpse of the world’s end. As the camera’s snapshot unfolds, the two scientists face a mystery that stretches beyond time itself.
In a quiet moment of scientific curiosity, Mr. Michael Russel and Mr. Dorsey confront a terrifying discovery: an intelligent, liquid lifeform thriving in a poisoned pond, absorbing the knowledge of every creature it dissolves. As the scientists attempt to contain the threat, a single careless act in their lab sets off a chain of events that may have already let the creature slip beyond their control.
