I posted these jpegs in the thread for Passengers (2016) in response to Bulldogtrekker's post about how certain story elements in that movie are similar to this classic yarn.
Naturally the thread belongs here, too.
The cover is insanely sexy, and the story itself is a teenage boy's fantasy. I imagine the guys read this story once . . . but looked at it over and over again.

| Nice. I should mention that the adaptation of a Ray Bradbury story, as mentioned on the cover, is "Surprise Package," not this tale. EC had been unofficially using ideas from Bradbury stories, but after a polite letter from the author, they came to a proper arrangement to do official adaptations. |
