":Maybe a little wild and certainly a whole heap wacky, here comes PS's third volume of Pulp style stories from this Ace title choc-full of stolen pagan religious relics and mysterious cults in odd corners of the world . . . plus, of course, the inevitable (and thank goodness for that!) shuffling cadavers, vampires, ghouls and all manner of similar undead, half-dead or just down with a bad headache monster-types. Five gorey, grungey issues (18 thru 22) with enough four-colour wizardry delivered from the likes of Chic Stone, Sy Grudko, Bill Molno, Ken Rice, Lou Cameron, Jim McLaughlin, Louis Zansky and Ace Baker."

"Ace were turning out class acts of four-colour nastiness for several years and the fourth volume of Hand of Fate goes one step further with a bonus 1950 title in the shape of issue 1 of Challenge of the Unknown. And funksters, that's quite a shape! Artists include Lou Cameron, Sy Grudko, Richard Case, Jim McLaughlin, Ken Rice, Louis Zansky,Lin Streeter, Larry Woromay and Warren Kremer. Collects Hand of Fate #23-25 (June 1954 to December 1954) and Challenge of the Unknown #1 (1952)."
