Owner's Description
The first issue in this series introduces us to the concept of "modern medicine" as it existed in 1955. In the first story we read how fortunate we are to have treatments for pain including anesthetics for a safe and comfortable operation to relieve the pain from broken bones. My favorite story in this issue is "The Antidote," which puts the reader in the role of William T. Anders, "a doctor, an M.D." who is forced to neglect his personal and family life to take care of a boy with appendicitis.
This issue has my favorite cover, by Johnny Craig. If anyone knows where the original art for the cover is located, I would love to see it. It is the only issue not approved by the Comics Code.
