| Synopsis
| - A warrior race dispatches one of their conquerors to the planet whereupon they have detected intelligent life, but after the ship has dropped him off and departed not to return for several years hence, he can find no sign of civilization. The weeks turn to months then months to years and eventually the warrior loses the will to live and expires on what appears to him to be a dead world. It turns out the inhabitants were disguised as rocks.

Doctor [[W:C:marvel:Henry Pym
- Bill Carter enters an antique shop looking for a birthday gift for his wife, Anne, and finds an antique mirror. Although the antiques dealer warn's him the mirror belonged to a sorcerer and is thought to be enchanted, Bill gets it for his wife, thinking the strange story will enhance the mirror's appeal. Anne puts the mirror in the bedroom so she can dress in front of it.
Over the next days, Anne spends increasing amounts of time in front of the mirror, becoming less friendly as she does. Eventually, she tries to release the sorcerer trapped in the mirror. She tricks Bill into the next room and locks him in, then begins the ritual. Bill pounds on the wall, asking to be released, and the vibrations knock the mirror from the wall, breaking it and releasing Anne from it's spell.
