Awesome, good Sir... (they had in "Nightmare" or "Scream" an "Alice in Wonderland" tale that we have looked for for over 40 years...) did enjoy "Horror Mood" comics as a kid... Great post !!!

Good news, Doctor!The story is called "The Thing in the Space" and it was in NIGHTMARE #18. Look for the "Monster Comics" tab under the MMW titles at the top of the page -- I've posted it there for you. Enjoy!
