Manic Monday Triple Overtime--Will Man Find The Key To Eternal Life?

A good question.

And by the way, that's a great picture from artist Karen Karol.

But the actual idea? Let's explore some excerpts from the text piece by "H. MacLeod Kensington, B.S." (presumably emphasis on the "BS").

From Planet Comics #27 (1943)
