In "Project... Survival!", Commander Stone’s chilling report to Earth’s I.S.E.A. reveals a mind-bending truth: a mysterious planet they investigated was no ordinary world, but a colossal craps table where giant aliens played with dice that were actually living, moving cubes. Written by Al Feldstein and William Gaines, with bold, surreal art by Wally Wood and vibrant colors by Marie Severin, this 1952 EC classic turns cosmic exploration into a bizarre, high-stakes game. The cover, penciled and inked by Al Feldstein, captures the eerie wonder of the discovery.

Commander Stone’s report details a mission gone utterly wrong: a spaceship destroyed by colossal, moving cubes on a strange world. What he didn’t realize until after escape was that the planet was no ordinary surface—it was a vast craps table, and the cubes were just dice in the game of giants. With Bitron, Berghoff, and Kholler watching, Stone recounts the surreal truth behind the wreckage.

A Man's Job!

In a future where women have taken over every job and run society, men are now the ones staying home, raising children, and giving birth—reversing traditional roles in a world where gender norms have been completely upended. This thought-provoking science fiction tale explores the quiet revolution of domestic life, where the meaning of work and family is redefined.
