Tower of Shadows 1969 #6 - back issue - $9.00

A spy uses shrinking pills to easily discover military secrets. On a crucial mission, he is attacked by a rat and loses his growth pills, trapping him forever in his tiny form.

The legendary Beowulf and his men save a fair maiden and her kingdom from a shadowy demon called the Beast-God who can make men go mad simply by looking at them. After the monster is defeated, Beowulf reveals his true intentions; he wants to conquer the kingdom. When the ghost of the Beast-God returns, the princess tricks Beowulf into putting on a poison ring to fight the monster. This causes Beowulf to die, and while his ghost defeats the ghost of the Beast-God, he is now doomed to walk the Earth as a ghost forever.

A man makes contact with a race of aliens and instructs them to come directly to where his seaside laboratory is. They make contact but the aliens are so huge they step on his house crushing him. Thinking they have been had since they don't see anyone around, they leave.

A man causes real life accidents so he can record the sounds of chaos and destruction that he tape records. He plans to sell these tapes to record companies. While he is listening to the recorded noises, he notices a strange scream in the background that he never recalled when he was recording the sounds. One night while he is damaging train tracks so he can cause a train wreck and record the sounds, he gets trapped on the tracks and gets run over by the train. As he screams he realizes that it was his screams he had heard on his earlier recordings!
