Out of This World #1
Out of This World #1 is an anthology containing at least two science fiction stories. "Out of This World" depicts alien creatures with tentacles and large eyes pursuing scouts, who are ultimately killed by the aliens, though scientists discover the creatures were only transmitting common cold germs. "The Mission from Outer Space" follows a golden-robed alien sent from the fourth planet of the system Zeta to meet with prospector Larry Ames in his mountain cabin; the alien urges Ames to plant a bomb to destroy Earth, but Ames refuses and ultimately removes the alien in his rocket, choosing peace and friendship over the alien's violent agenda.
