The first 2 stories are quite weird: a murderous parasite that lives behind people's eyes, and a woman who turns into a flower. The first story has mostly typeset (Leroy) lettering, but some of the dialogue and captions have been obviously re-lettered by hand for obscure reasons. "Mysterious Adventures" started off poorly (check out the first couple of issues that have awful artwork) but improved slightly as time went on (although Bill Fraccio's art is not my cup of tea).
