I appreciate this. A favorite series from my childhood.

Ditko renders the Gorgo cover much better here . At first glance you would swear that you are looking at a DC comic book. The highlighting of Gorgo by the mad doctors' electrical prod reminds me of DCs " House of Mystery " & " House of Secrets " cover art. Very DC-ish ! The story is very reminiscent of Atlas "the Tales to Astonish" and "Tales Of Suspense" "Giant monsters" pre hero books. This issue was a particular childhood favorite of mine because it seemed to bring all those elements together very well.
