Journey into Mystery 1972 #3 - back issue - $6.00

A writer becomes obsessed with an ancient forbidden book of magic, and murders its owner to steal it. However, translation of the book releases a loathsome evil from beyond space and time.

A German pilot breaks the armistice to kill one more French flier and attain a high military honor, but the testimony of his own men prevents the honor. He murders those who testified against him, and years later all his victims return to kill him in return.

An intelligent man grows tired among life on Earth as mere humans are like children to him when he receives a telepathic message from what appears to be a beautiful woman on Saturn imploring him to build a rocket to journey to her. He does so, but when he arrives she removes her mask to kiss him, revealing herself to be a hideous hag.
