Worst Case Scenario
July, 1958

When the world erupts in a nuclear holocaust, astronauts on the moon have "No Place to Go" in this disturbing story by Henry Slesar. Valigursky's cover for this issue of  Amazing Stories captures the nihilistic mood of the late fifties, when people built basement fallout shelters in futile preparation for global destruction. One year after this dismal cover appeared, the movie adaptation of Nevil Shute's On The Beach spread similar gloom and doom throughout America's theaters.
