Check out this short sci-fi shocker about a murderous mission to Mars..."Countdown!"

Ralph Reese did some excellent work during his too short time in mainstream comics (returning briefly in the 90s to do some inking work for Valiant). There was the really good Wally Wood style story in Web of Horror # 3. And check out the early Skyward Psychos and Nightmares for some great examples of his later style.
