Tales of Wonder (about)
It has often been theorized that the first issue was actually an unnumbered volume in the Master Thriller series, from the same publisher. Improved knowledge of that title has disproved this, however, as there are now no known gaps into which Tales of Wonder could fit. The last four issues feature the same standardized cover design.
