(1966) "At the Brink of Hell"
Last episode's events attract a Twonoser fleet to the secret base on Arctis. But when the Twonosers fail to defeat the Terrans, their Andromedan overlords, the "Masters of the Island", send a space whale to destroy the entire system. I'm not sure what Doc Savage is doing on the cover, but the image seems to reference a subplot in which a Terran agent is blown into an overlapping universe at a different "energy level"
Bookwomble Ha, ha! I thought it was The Man of Bronze as I was scrolling down 😄 7mo
swynn @Bookwomble The Man of Bronze is clearly an inspiration here (to put it generously), but its audience may not have recognized it. The first German translations of Doc Savage didn't appear until 1966, according to the history here: https://www.herr-rau.de/wordpress/2004/07/doc-savage-in-german.htm 7mo
