Microscopic Roman centurions? Elderly ghosts clobbering gangsters? A haunted vintage of French wine? No conceit is too strange for Forbidden Worlds, the playfully bizarre anthology series that hit newsstands in 1951 and continued for 145 outlandish issues! Comic-book giants Al Williamson, Wally Wood, Frank Frazetta, and Ogden Whitney helped to illustrate these pre-Comics Code gems!

Issues #1 to #4 of the rare and fascinating Forbidden Worlds are now gathered into an archival hardcover, featuring the first in a series of introductory essays by comic-book historian and connoisseur of the obscure, Dan Nadel (Art Out of Time: Unknown Comics Visionaries, 1900-1969)!

Steve Flint was a crusading private detective -- no crime was too small or too big for him to take on, and the criminal underworld quaked in fear at the very mention of his name. But when FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover asks Flint to investigate the Mafia's connections to sabotage the race to the moon, the crusading detective took on more than he expected and was murdered by the Mob. For most men the story would end there . . . but Steve Flint is sent back from the great Unknown as a spirit empowered by the Grim Reaper with superhuman abilities, charged with capturing his killers and striking a blow for justice as the ghostly hero Nemesis!
