Challengers of the Unknown Part III

Part II of this series of posts introduced the six issues of the Challengers of the Unknown comic book that reprinted the early COTU stories by Jack Kirby. Here are the third and fourth.

Issue 77 reprints "Menace of the Ancient Vials" from Showcase 12 (January-February 1958). The reprint is faithful to the original.

Issue 78 has two stories - "The Isle of No Return" from COTU 7 (April-May 1959) and "The Sorceress of Forbidden Valley" from COTU 6 (February-March 1959). The editor decided that the original purple outfits might confuse the kids so they were recoloured to match the later COTU costumes.

COTU 77 - December 1970/January 1971

COTU 78 - February 1973
