Journey Into Mystery #13, Atlas Comics 1953, Raw - Atlas Comics, Journey Into Mystery #13, cover dated June 1953. Golden Age monster-and-adventure title featuring ”The Glob” as the lead story, with interior artwork showing classic pre-Code horror imagery creatures and dramatic action sequences typical of early 1950s Atlas output. The 10-cent cover price anchors this to the Korean War era of comics publishing, when Atlas was establishing its reputation for imaginative supernatural tales before the company's transformation into Marvel. This raw copy shows honest aging consistent with a seven-decade-old periodical: noticeable spine stress, moderate color breaking along the edges, and some yellowing throughout. Interior pages are intact with no significant tears or missing content. A solid reading copy that captures the spirit of early Atlas horror before the Comics Code would reshape the industry.
