WHAT IF: Strange Worlds/Amazing Adventures Vol. 1

Map by Gormuu: reprints Strange Worlds #1-5, Amazing Adventures #1-6 (264 pages)

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the irregular page counts of this 15-issue series, as well as the fact that it is split down the middle with equal parts standard Atlas Era monster mag and equal parts Steve Ditko showcase, the mapping of these comics could take any of several different permutations should it get collected.

This particular map combines the 120-page run of Strange Worlds #1-5 with the first six issues of Amazing Adventures into one typically sized Masterworks volume.
