Weird Tales of the Future #6

In "Time and Tide," a scientist's experiment with a shrinking ray goes disastrously wrong when his assistant, Jonah, is reduced to less than an inch tall—only to be accidentally swallowed in a sandwich. Trapped inside the scientist’s mouth, Jonah fights to survive, using a laser to fend off the threat of being swallowed, while the scientist suffers a mysterious toothache. The dentist’s baffling examination of a tiny, unidentifiable object sets the stage for a shocking reversal, as the scientist attempts to restore Jonah using the ray’s reverse polarity. Art by Tony Mortellaro and cover by Bernard Baily bring this bizarre, high-stakes micro-adventure to life in a 1953 issue where science, humor, and panic collide.
