Baffling Mysteries #15
In "Snakes Alive!", engineer Cranford stumbles upon a hidden parallel world crafted entirely of glass, where its inhabitants seek to conquer Earth with his cooperation. After refusing their offer, he finds himself haunted by the eerie presence of glass—now a constant threat—and is deemed mad, finding strange peace in the quiet isolation of a windowless padded cell. The story unfolds through stark, expressive art by Jim McLaughlin, whose dynamic pencils and inks bring the unsettling glass realm to life, both inside and on the cover.
