Forbidden Worlds #67
A space expedition led by Commander Xanthron lands on a planet undergoing catastrophic seismic disruption and discovers a subhuman giant, a massive creature twice the size of a man covered in fur with a flat nose. When the expedition's rocket calculations indicate the planet will break apart, Xanthron sentences the giant to death, but a crew member named Carola helps the creature escape, following it to higher ground where it leads them to safety before the planet's destruction forces them to evacuate. The story concludes with the grateful explorers reflecting on their encounter with the subhuman giant as they prepare to depart, with one character promising to document every detail of their discovery.
